Take your damn star. SAAB for sure. But I’ll take a 9-5 EViggen Wagon
Im guessing he said that to generate comments on this article. Jalopnik isn't what it used to be and being blatantly wrong is a tactic I wouldn't put past them. You see this kind of bait pretty often on Instagram.
literally, I have no idea how there was any debate in this article as to how it happened. No shit he floored it and lost it, it’s a V12 RWD Ferrari for christ’s sake. This website gets dumber and dumber I swear to god
That lift-off oversteer is a bitch ;)
Is his other car a Mustang?
Yes, I raced to the comments for this. I’m guessing Collin has never driven a high powered RWD car.
Yeah, it’s amazing to me that there’s any debate about this at all. I’m not going to demonize the actor for driving aggressively (I wouldn’t really call it street racing) to show up another sports car, I’ve definitely done it when I was younger. It was a stupid show of bravado, and he/his insurance company will be…
The upcoming traffic light turns green just before the car starts to lose control. I’m guessing he saw the light turn green, mashed the pedal and lost the rear end.
Yeah you can see a surge as he tickles the throttle, then a wiggle of the tail end as it responds, and then it all goes sideways when he wasn’t prepared for that wiggle in the tail. Usually we call it Mustang Driver Syndrome.
Looks like a typical crash leaving a “cars & coffee” event. Too much power with not enough skill. Appears to have floored it before the rear end pitched right and he over corrected by steering to the right.
He was likely about to show off and pass the other Ferrari, goose the throttle a bit, and that’s the end result!
Your best theory is he dropped his phone? LOL. I’ve seen this exact move 1000 times from inexperienced drivers trying to show off with a big HP RWD car, he was stupid unlucky enough that his overcorrection took him into the side of a parked car. Go watch a compilation of C&C crashes and you will understand.
Looks like he hit the gas to get by the other car, there is a small surge of acceleration, but wasn’t prepared for any movement other than directly, straight line, forward, when it picked up a wiggle on the pavement contours, he couldn’t correct in time. Just plain bad driving all around. It even looks like you can…
Must have been an underinflated tire.
one day someone is gonna get shot for booting a vehicle, and we're all going to collectively shrug.
Have you considered not shopping there?
Truckers should boycott Shelby Express. No more trucks to boot and tow. They will figure out how to get rid of A1 given sufficient motivation.
At what point does this become a business problem for any Memphis-based freight company? If I were a dispatcher right now, I’d be doing everything I can to avoid sending trucks there precisely because I’d have no idea if that load will ever be delivered. I don’t get paid for undelivered loads.
