Saw on the news before about a GT i think from brisbane that crashed into a family yard last night and ended up in their pool, not long after the house owners kids got out of the pool. Luckily no one was hurt, but sad end for the GT :(

That is sad. The poor owners... I wonder how it actually got there. Like was it an accident in the sense that someone accidentally drove it through someones fence and into a pool? I bet they are not going to have a great Christmas...
:(

Is it my eyes - or does the bonnet say BOSS 310?
I'm no FPV expert - but i thought they only came in 290? Last edited by NetBootDisk; 24-12-2006 at 08:31 PM. Reason: Added Screen Capture |
