That wrecked exotics website is pretty wild. I wonder how they get all of those photos from all around the world. Plus, some owners are such dip****s. In some instances, after seeing the photos, you know they felt inviceable and pushed the car beyond its limits, and they were certain to bite the dust. Like the yellow porsche with the telephone pole sitting half way into the car where the drivers seat once was!

Maybe I'll search through the archives to dig up the post. I recall everyone just being glad he survived!

I spoke to the telephone pole recipient, he had a combination of wet roads (standing water),
a modest speed (60 mph in a 50 zone) and bald tires!! (he had just purchased the car). nearly
same thing happened to me: I bought car in New orleans, Rear tires looked good enough for
drive home, (but not in the rain), car would hydroplane at 60 mph on bald s02's. I had to keep
speed below 60 in rain from Des Moines, Ia to Mpls, Mn (5 hours) of terrifying spinning and
drifting. Tires are everything!
