Yes, when I was checking the car out (BRZ Obviously) the driver and Crawford himself self said that the McLaren driver didnt even apologize. Not even informally, just didnt say anything.

Not gonna happen. Apparently he had a youtube video up which has since been put as private/removed.

Kinda obvious who is in the wrong here.

i'm sad to hear about the BRZ, that was one of the more awesome looking ones. Screw the Mclaren Driver, there's no way he wasn't at fault, look at his car!

Yes, I agree. Not releasing the video = He's saying it was his fault.

Pretty much, especially given the location of the GoPro.



Also, it makes absolutely no sense on how the BRZ sustained the damage it did while the 12C has almost no damage on the left side of the car.

Really looks like he came to the event to be all badass.
Great read and I do think he underestimated the BRZ's speed.

Crawford, hope you get her pretty again very soon!!

Found the forum that he belongs to and hes actually posting on there now. Cant want what he has to say about this. Let the updates begin.!

http://www.mclarenlife.com/forums/mc...ne-here-2.html

*One thing though. Please dont go on their forums and start making all of us look like idiot douche bags by calling him names and flaming him.*

The dude probably, well not probably, most likely feels like shit and we all know hes a crap driver.

Naturally the next response would be "Oh, the GoPro? It wasn't on."
