1. Hempstead Road is the worst possible road to be going fast on. Bumpy as hell.
2. West 34th is ghetto

Not that you need any more evidence that the mechanic is an idiot.

He should have joined the FBI, then he'd have been able to get away with it.

Last week according to link. Cant believe I missed that, there was not a mention in the Chron. that I saw.
That is a bad part of town to stretch the legs of your F40. Says its cracked the tub and is totaled. Uh Oh.

To crash a F40, he should be hung, drawn and quartered..f'in f'in idiot. The F40 is arguably in the top 10 most desirable cars.

Houston has the worst idiot drivers and roads...wow..in the last 4 days this happened here:

...and I don't see any footprints leading away from the Lexus in the concrete. How'd the driver get out?

She's still locked safely inside, as she knows the concrete workers, who just finished floating that pad in the hot Houston sun, are waiting to kick her ass...
