Went to a cruise tonight, this happened before I got there.
Kid put a C20XE in and didn't upgrade the brakes Couldn't stop in time for a junction, missed a car, mounted the curb, ripped the sump off and the car went up in flames
No one was hurt as far as I know.
But that is another GSi gone.

Clearly speeding, and excessively at a guess, if he can't stop for a junction doing the national speed limit or marginally above. No sympathy.

Definitely Speeding...
Apparently he got out and ran off before the police came!

I'm guessing its just a rumour but no insurance and no license... No sense either.

Probably wasn't a declared conversion either.
Exactly why I upgraded my brakes before the power....
Quite worrying that they look like Compomotives which is meant to be a strong wheel but they snapped like that

If they're hit hard enough, something has to fail, just means the hub is stronger.

If they get scrapped for a bit of rust on the legs, I think having been on fire is a fairly certain fate.
Did anyone get the reg? I'll add it to the GSi register thread.
