OUCH!

 

[Shinpachi]

Thanks guys if you have enjoyed.
MM's comment is funny above all

Thanks for posting that, Shinpachi. I would imagine there is more to that story than just the rain; I bet they were driving in close formation for so many of them to have been wiped out like that.

Ferrari owner "Can I have a tow truck for a Ferrari?"
Garage mechanic "OK, that's a fair swap!"

Dang....even at speeds of "less than 100mph", those drivers are dang lucky to have walked/limped/crawled away from a pileup like that. Typically at those speeds, there's not much left for the police to identify.

That is going to hurt somebodies wallet!

Question:
What do you do with 400 horse power in the rain?
Answer:
PARK IT!!!!!!!

 

[mikewint]

Yup, all that HP, nice wide racing tires, and rear wheel drive plus rain, can we say hydroplaning. That's why the Sky is stored until summer

 

[Shinpachi]

Nice comments Thanks guys!

Not if they are an Australian Insurance company - they are about to cop a pasting from the current Royal Commission.

More important though - have you and yours survived the current storms and earthquakes without any serious problems??

Bay area suffered serious damage by the high water but central area like my town was OK.
Tall buildings protected themselves each other from the wind.
Thanks.

That'll cost a few.

Glad your safe shinpachi.
