Here is my conclusion (click to read):
http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showp...5&postcount=66


I wanted to wait until the police investigation is over before posting anything, but it's bound to appear sooner or later. Already starting to pop up on other forums.

It's no April fools joke, had an accident in my car on Sunday night.

I can't say I am a professional, but according to people who have driven with me apparently I have some skill. I have done track days, auto crosses and gymkhanas, paddock blasts, driver training courses and have over 150,000km of driving experience. Heck I even tried drifting at the Taupo Festival of Fun day and with only 1 spin the whole day, I can't say I did too badly.

Apparently none of this was good enough on Sunday when my 86 went backwards off the road, flipped a few times and then went down a 8m cliff to land on the roof. The sad thing is, I wasn't even trying to go fast or drift or anything stupid, if I was, then I would be able to accept what happened. I was just driving normally heading home.

Drive safe guys.


No severe injuries, just a few scratches, both me and passenger walked out of it. I give the car a 10/5 for safety.

This poor car and its owners are cursed.

Bummer :(

Walking away from an accident is always top priority. I was in a roll a few months back prior to getting the FR-S and walked away without a scratch. Glad to hear you're safe and sound. Safety seems to be top notch in this car as well.

I'm glad to hear that you had no major injuries...

Sorry man,

This is why I drive safe cars. I love driving but not dieing.

FRiSson 04-01-2013 09:11 PM

Dying. Unless you are engaged in coloring fabric.

How did you manage to flip the tC upside down?

You know I'm only joking Luka but thought I'd get in before anyone else! I know you'll put them up when you can.

As I said before - glad you and GF are AOK. Would have made our next club get together a very sad affair if anything had happened to either of you.
