gotham dream cars accident

http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/201...er_head-o.html

just saw this on the news. looks like two of their ferraris, 430 and 430 spyder, were involved in an accident. the red 430 spyder veered into oncoming traffic and killed a motorcyclist.

my prayers go out to the motorcyclist and his family.

Wow that's really sad. It does look like they were racing though, and that's even sadder for the victim.

RIP

STUPID, STUPID, STUPID!!!! I almost lost my life by a kid in a Honda Civic racing up HWY 9 when he veered off into my lane as I was coming down the mountain on a Triumph Speed Triple. I have ridden street bikes since the age of sixteen....after that, it was the last day I ever went "sport" riding. The thought of losing my life by someone else sick-ins me. Granted I've done my fair share of stupid things, where I may have ended my life, but they never involved the risk of someone else's.

Four years ago, I did get into a head-on motorcycle accident off-road racing on a closed course....lets just say it was a "stupid idiot" who somehow got through 4 check points...he road away and I was air lifted out by Flight for Life.

I agree. This is a tragedy, an easily avoidable and completely inexcusable tragedy.

A "Head Ache", someone lost his life!

I have to vent...I am originally from that part of NJ. The road where the accident happened I know very well and if you lost control of a 430 you were not driving responsibly.

I hope they lock up those 2, IMHO It was not a accident, it was murder by vehicle.

The guy that was killed sounds like an EDC crew member for EDC NY. RIP. My brother works for Insomiac. I'm sure he knows the guy.

This is sad and probably could have been prevented... I read another article where is said they are being investigated for exsessive speeding.... one driver was 19 the other 28 yo....

What really scares me about motorcycles are the other people on the road. You can be the best rider in the world but if someone else makes a bad decision you could end up paying for it with your life. I've heard the saying....

two kinds of riders...

those that have gone down....
those who are going down....

R.I.P .

RIP to the family of the motorcycle driver. I suspect the two F car drivers weren't obeying traffic laws. The 28 y/o sounds like he is related to Rob, who I believe is the owner of Gotham and also the host of Super Speeders.
