*High* speed crash in a new Audi. OMFG

Just now stumbled upon this forum entry.

Some of you may have already seen it.
RS6 ABT meets a tree at what must have been about 120 mph.

And don't worry. No one was seriously injured. No blood or anything like that in those pictures. The driver walked away from that!

"Dam this car is strong, I know, I'm gonna hit that tree at 120kph, that will be fun to see which is stronger, but it's ok if the tree wins, I have LHD"



ps. Only Joking Richie, your comment really made me laugh

Passenger seat is part under but mostly in the back half of the car in the first picture... so think your spot on with that comment . Looks like the passenger would be spread over the tree itself had they been present


In fact the drivers survival (let alone his lack of injuries) was a complete fluke to do with the angle he hit the tree. A few inches over and he would be very toast.

Lucky Lucky Lucky man

How is the Tree ? No serious injuries ?

I think I know these roads in Luxembourg, the green Heart of Europe. Highest density of motorway, nice car and petrol station in the EEC !

You could do with that extra * in that case.

Lotto!!
If yours lotto are similar to ours, you will have one chance in 5 million to get seven correct lotto numbers.
Meaning that you're more likely to die between buying and drawing date than winning!
(my "lottery inglisj" is probably awful...)
