Ferrari and SLR Race Fail

http://jalopnik.com/5364443/mclaren-...yline=true&s=x

Quote:

A moron in a Mercedes McLaren SLR and a moron in a Ferrari were allegedly racing mid-day in Poland when the moron in the SLR crashed, destroying four surrounding cars and, miraculously, killing no one. It's a Crash Week miracle!

The crash happened Sunday when the two morons organized a race on public streets and the SLR driver just couldn't hack it. The car crashed in spectacular fashion, sending four individuals to the hospital after destroying as many as four other cars. The driver of the Ferrari fled the scene but eventually turned himself in. To make things even more stupid, it seems the McLaren driver had a kid in the car, but our Polish is rusty and software translation hasn't quite mastered the subtleties of the Polish language. In any case, this is a big box of stupid wrapped up in stupid paper and tied together with a stupid bow.

worst type of street racing

lol, I've been calling that car the SLR that I forgot the full name was "SLR McLaren".
At first, I thought a third car, McLaren F1, was involved, who had a kid in car.

Not a bad way to waste half a million dollars.

Might have a tough time getting a payout if he was street racing.

SLR Partout. I Don't mind the rear brakes then maybe the Tails. Hmmm

Waste of money. Luckily the other driver's are still alive to sue.

4 people in the SLR?
and no one is dead? WOW.

hmm, it seems to me not that true, because i have seen a lot of these cases happening and they have all been compensated...

even my friend who was a N driver.. drinking and driving way over the limit of even someone who has a full license can drink...

he got cuffed and police filed it in...

2 weeks later he gets a check for his car

^ I believe SLR is 2 seats only?

Roads in Poland are incredibly shitty, not a good idea to be speeding in low stiffly sprung performance cars.

Have you been there? It seems you have a bad opinion about Poland for some reason.

Is the SLR a clown car now? Should I be expecting a whole African village come out of it the next time I see one?
