    So your trying to tell me & everyone else on this forum that the police are to blame for everything that happened to Stu?

    Tell me this, if the police are involved in a high speed pursuit & have to call it off because the goose went over 160km/h & then the goose in front loose's the car, crashes & kill's himself after the police let him get away for the time being, the police are to blame?

    They're doing they're job, just like you & me.
    I admire them, they have a rotten job to do and dont get enough praise for what they do. Rather, they cop abuse from certain people that dont understand what would happen if they all gave up their jobs.
    I reckon you would have to have been there last night with poor Stu to know the actual facts though he has explained them pretty well.
    I had a major headon prang 14 months after getting my licence (my fault) and I copped a lot of flack over that. I learnt and it made me a heck of a lot better a driver after that. Stu, believe me mate, you will be a much better driver for this experience. Dont leave the forum, whatever you do. A long term build up will help you fill in time.

    Spyda, the cops didn't make Stu race and speed did they? it is his fault and no one else's period.

    No one seems to be responsible for their actions anymore.....

    All the best.
    just from the curb and then a pole (a pole i have to pay for but then doesn't become my property...what the!? lol) at about 30km...mostly all from the curb...i'm getting the car back 2moz so i will get some more pics and will post what is good and for sale. yeh i'm very shaken up.

    I have been there myself as a foolish young man, I once put a polo on its roof.

    As long as you learn from the stupid things you do, its all for the best in the end.

    I reckon you could build a badass car in a year with no licence.
    thanks mate yeh i have a year man its gunna baaaaaddddasssss! i already have a plan can't give it away!

    Just cleaned up this thread.

    Hats off to Stu for manning up and accepting that it was his fault.

    At least no-one was hurt, show us the gory pics when you get the beast back.
