I suspect he just google searched the image and posted it, then got called out. I mean, I've never accidently told someone I ride a ZX-10R when really its just a ZX-6R. I'm calling BS on this one unless pics of this wreck start showing up. I mean who has a Porsche Carrera S and a cell phone with no camera? Wouldn't someone want to document this supposed accident with hard evidence in case some insurance agency came after you?

If I'm wrong then great but things just aren't adding up for me here.
i don't drive a 911, but i don't have a camera phone, my job doesn't allow it. maybe he's in the same boat

these cars can take a beating, i've seen some T-Boned G35 Coupes and it held up pretty good, door skin is smashed but still in good overall shape considering it's been T-Boned

I wonder which dealership he went to...?
It probably doesn't matter now, it's most likely at a shop being repaired or it's at the towing company lot waiting for the insurance people.
That picture with the 911 seems like a familiar area to me!
I'm still amazed that this guy crashed a 370z and he drives a porche!
But then again most people in Jersey cannot drive for ****!

The other fishy thing is the 77 MPH thing. Who in their right mind notices that they are going 77 MPH when they are spinning a car out of control towards a barrier?

as i said, i felt in control the whole time. i looked at the speed coming down the overpass and i was doing 81, felt the back slide as i was trying to reduce speed. so yes, i was very aware of the speed.

as i said, i am very experienced racing car driver.

Actually if you look carefully, you haven't made that claim until just this very minute. Care to share who you raced for, in what leagues/catagories you raced, as well as what vehicle you were using for this racing? Also how long have you been racing?
