Another F80 crashed while tracking at NJMP
Pics of wreck posted on High Octane South Jersey website.
https://www.facebook.com/HighOctaneSouthJersey Looks like a NY has 1 less F80 driving around. Heard the driver walked away.

There's a gopro stuck on the roof of that F80.... Is it morbid to want to see the video?

I think we should impose self-censorship of such photographs and news, unless explicit permission was given from the owner of the vehicle. There are many implications both at the club level and more so at the driver level that it is worth not sensationalizing this type of unfortunate news.

However you can't stop the rain from falling. Specifically, groups like " high octane south jersey who posted not only photos of the loss but also didn't even bother to block any ID on the vehicle. People will wreck these cars on the street and track. And reminders that this is an extremely powerful car and that things can go quickly awry, even in a controlled environment are good for us all. Keep it safe out there folks, and keep MDM on until you really know the car well... |

I was at that event. No instructors as it was for advanced drivers only. It was really cold that day (high in the 40's), so you really couldn't get heat into the tires and it was pretty slick. Front of car took a big hit and dropped a lot of oil on the track. The story I heard (not first hand, but the aftermath matched the story), was that the driver breathed off the throttle mid-corner, lost the back end of the car coming onto the main straight and nosed it into the inside guardrail.
I felt bad for the driver, but he walked away okay. |

I'm willing to bet the owner / driver of the car is somehow associated w/ High Octane and knows that it's on their fb page. It's their content, if they don't care why should we or the mods here care?
Of course it's always in poor taste and never a good idea to post these kinds of thing on the internet but it sure does seem like they don't care, it's been there for days at this point. I read the post and realized this was an Intermediate to Advanced event and no instructors were there, it was a joke. Last edited by G30 B58; 11-24-2014 at 06:00 AM.. |

I always believed that if you're tracking the car and are that concerned about being discovered, you'll either tape up the plate or remove it. Especially in today's day and age where everything seems fair game for posting to the internet.

It's publicly available on the event Facebook page. Why should it be deleted from here? In the event of a fatality it may have been disrespectful to the family ... but in this case I don't see anything wrong.
