WOW! Very sad and it apparently wasn't even his fault.

What sucks even more...

Since it was at the track, insurance isn't going to cover that.

^ but you can bet your ass there will be a civil suit against the idiot that rolled his car onto the R35 (if the description with the video is accurate)

Why must stupid people make slideshows and put them on video sites? We have photo sharing sites for that, FlickR, ImageShack, and many others.

And where the hell are the photo's of the accident? Looks more like the owner of the GTR rolled the car multiple times onto itself. Looks like waaaaaaay to much damage for another car to have rolled onto it.

I'm guessing that was after it was crushed at the junkyard. There is no way anyone survived something like that.

Not sweet, the technical term is 'crunk'.

I call bull****. That looks like a R35 that went flippy floppy down the road at speed, not one that just had some freak accident w/ another car landing on it.

See thats what I am thinking. That thing was beyond mangled. If a car rolled on top of it, it would still have a crunched in roof no? I mean there isnt even a roof left.

I call BS. Not sure how many colors the GT-R came in, but the car at the junkyard doesn't look like the same color as the car shown in the beginning of the slideshow. That, and the guy with the crunk cut is nowhere to be seen in the beginning. If it was his car, better believe he'd be posing near it.

if anything it was crashed on the street....and if not, then it was crushed afterwords, no way a car "rolled ontop of it" and did that damage unless he was doing serious speed, broke the sound barrier, hit the barrel roll button and had this car directly in its target.

No. His transmission would have popped before he got going fast enough to do that.

r35's don't have driver side airbags? This is of course assuming airbags deploy in a rollover b/c it sure doesn't look like it.
