In the last month I think there's been 5 and it's not got really cold yet. December is the month when we lose the most.

im in greenhithe near bluewater

Sheesh sorry to hear that man .

I'm gonna lock mine away from everyone else til the sun comes back i think

Im pretty new to the scene and have recently bought an N/A aerotop. Why is it exactly that some many Supras are being crashed/written off at this time of year? Are they that delicate compared to other performance cars? Or is it that people drive using both turbos in the wet/ice? Just interested ...

In general it's the TT's that get wrecked during the winter, the majority are auto's (though I don't think thats a contributing factor).

From what I've seen here over the years it's almost always the younger drivers or those not experiencing driving high power RWD cars that have the accidents. Though in this fella's case it wasn't his fault, it nearly always seems to be one of two things that causes the wreck:

- Sudden "unexplained" loss of grip at high speed (IMO, too much throttle over poor road surface conditions)

- Loss of grip coming out of a corner/roundabout (IMO, too much throttle applied or too aggressive throttle input for the conditions)

It's not always the case, but pretty nearly all accidents we hear of on here are caused by one of the above.

it was a nice looking car. you dont have much luck with your motors do you kev.

Sorry to hear of your loss

WHAT Another !! Hope it is not a right off and you get it back on the road for next year
