Re: Suzuki in a hedge (crash)
Not that I'm ignoring the fact that those two guys were seriously injured but it's a shame that the chassis, axles, boxes and possibly engine too are going to go to scrap. That's be a perfect bed for building a Rowfant onto.
There's three ways of doing things:
The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.

Re: Suzuki in a hedge (crash)
Unstable or not, that was upside down through a hedge. The instability issues, which WERE proved false, didn't cause that. I think they swerved to avoid something and went virtually end over end rather than a barrel roll because the nose was closer to the road. If it had gone over sideways wouldn't the nose have been pointing into the field? Plus there's a tree in the way so it couldn't have come from the direction it was facing relative to the road unless it was going backwards.Jay18 wrote:you know at first when i looked at it i thought "thats a red rag top, like lukes, damn i hope that isnt him on his birthday aswel!" lol but you have replied to this post so obviously its not you, shame about the poor zuk! now im questioning weather the yanks really did make up the story about SJ's being unstable...
The more I think about it the more certain I am that that SJ flipped end over end when the nose hit the hedge bottom.

Well no shocks on the front wouldn't help matters, watch the vid again I can't see any.
I realised that I'm friends with the kid who's SJ this is on Facebook and he was driving. All I'm going to say is that it sounds like he's going to be in a lot of trouble with the police.

Oh dear. suppose it wont be for sale then it will be in the scrap yard for deco, as was gona ask if anyone knew him and if he wanted to sell it. Showed Dad this the first thing he said to me was if you want to drive one on the road when you turn 17 your not having a soft top and dont show mum.

Re: Suzuki in a hedge (crash)
Does anybody know how there doing? It did say that one was in a critical condition. I asked on facebook but didn't get a reply.
Possibly no shocks and lift shackles, not a good combination if say a deer ran out, at that time of night.
It did say they went off the road before overturning, but as you can see the trees aren't going to do you any favours.
