WOW!
Things like this make me believe that this new found "Muscle" era will be short lived. Too much power, too much traffic, not enough brains. Yes it costs money to go to the track but is speeding down a road worth a life. Yes, he walked away but maybe he wont be so lucky next time. Ok, I'm done!

[baddest434]

holy crap thats a crazy story :shock: lucky sob

[The Fixer]

holy crap thats a crazy story :shock: lucky sob

Yeah, no doubt!! Makes you wonder how someone can do that much damage and still walk away. 5-star crash rating FTW!

No disrespect but after a crash like that crash tests have nothing to do with it. That was pure luck that he walked away from that. Amazing story. The pole is half way through the car!

woahhhh!

[FlyingDutchman]

amazing i wouldnt think you could survive that let alone walk away from it..

reminds me of a bullet the way the front mushroomed

[1994lt1]

What would you guys guess in terms of how fast he was going?

IMO you are wrong. Look at that passenger compartment.

All else being equal, that same crash kills me in my 1st or 2nd gen and probably my 3rd gen, and I'm not testing that limit in a 4th gen. They make these cars much better now to make up for piss-poor driving.

I just believe that at those speeds and for this application its far beyond the limits these cars were tested to withstand.

[BonzoHansen]

The pictures tell a different story. The passenger compartment is just about unscathed. Not just pure luck involved.

um then why does the pole in the first and third pic look like its sitting where the passenger seat is? in the third pic you can see clearly that the pole is inside the car, just look at the passenger side window.

[BonzoHansen]

Ah, the luck part! He was in the driver's seat!

Holy shnikes!!! Don't the new F-cars have a 5-star crash rating? If that guy was really doing the speed limit would the pole shred that car in half, or was he really flying and lied to PD about what happened?

damnnnnnnnnnnn

I doubt doing 40 would have resulted in that.

Damn... :shock:

[Foosh]

man telephone poles are like magnets for fast cars, a guy near me went right thru a telephone poll in lb a few years back... the zo6 made it to the other side, and supposidy only parts of the driver.

[SteveR]

[01SS]

I give the Pole a 5 Star Crash Test Rating. Must be oak.
