Coyote Posted September 27, 2022 Report Share Posted September 27, 2022 I have driven down that road. Not a road for high speed and wet road. Add any distraction and its a recipe for disaster. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D Bone Posted September 27, 2022 Report Share Posted September 27, 2022 Obviously distracted driving was the cause, and that distraction could've been anything from a phone, to an argument to a blowie. Whatever the cause that made him drop the passenger wheels off the road and then overcorrect, I'm glad they are both OK. It easily could've been a double fatal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One more thing, young guy, tons of cash, can buy any high end car he wants and not really experienced in driving those cars can be a recipe for a disaster. You have to be 110% ready to drive especially on tricky roads -and- add in distractions like cell phones, whatever and it could be worse. I hope at least they were wearing seat belts ! Result you might be "OK " but you might have just screwed your team and teammates. Just sayin'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although my car is far from a Porsche 911, I'm willing to bet the car came with the same kind of tires. Summer only tires and COLD rainy weather is a recipe for disaster.

And I agree with you about being young and not having the driving skills to handle all that acceleration. Quick FYI... The top end speed of a Porsche 911 is in the vicinity of 180 mph. You can probably do 90+ in third gear. With a sticker price of $100,000 and up, no sweat for a young multimillionaire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you buy a Corvette, they actually used to give you training before letting you drive it. Don't know if they do that anymore, but any car that has north of 400 horsepower should require training. They told me when I bought my car that if I turn off the traction control that I could end up facing a different direction if I hit the gas. I have driven the car long enough to be comfortable with turning it off. But I leave it on most of the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gumby73 Posted September 27, 2022 Report Share Posted September 27, 2022 bedtime after hearing Adam Schefler's report at halftime of boys at giants from Myles agent.. just released.. Tom Pelissero @TomPelissero #Browns star Myles Garrett was discharged from the hospital Monday night, per source. More tests coming. The good news is Garrett’s injuries aren’t life-threatening. He swerved to avoid an animal on a wet road and over corrected. Car flipped multiple times. Could’ve been worse. 6:54 AM · Sep 27, 2022 from Plymouth, MN·Twitter for iPhone No update on passenger 🙏 (compare both sides of vehicle 🤕) #95..

And a few searches of tirerack for random 911's didn't find any available there even today. I swear by my crossclimate2's.. 310 torques aren't anyone's idea of performance but the tires put it down well in rain and sun. So.. pick your performance car based on the tires available for it? Another point in favor of my goal car - AMG E63S.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on man. WSS Even if he was Steve, let's posit he was tooling along doing 60 down that country road. I have it ingrained in my mind that 60mph = 88 feet per second. If it's true that he was trying to avoid a critter (say a deer or coyote) 150 feet down the road, his reaction time was minimal. And for sure you don't want to hit either. FWIW, not so Wiley Coyote took out the front end of my Honda on a dark and stormy night last year, and I was only doing about 35. EDIT: Looking at the crash picture, you come over that little hill.. And said critter is standing right in the middle of the road. Not good. Of course he had to be moving along fairly fast to roll the car a couple of times.
