the C63 that got totaled.

so...I heard from the Northeast "mid-night run" meet that happened in New Jersey and New York...that a C63 was sandwiched and totaled.

apparently during the midnight run on GWB, some lady jammed on her brakes, then Poleposition (from e60net) rear ended the lady with his X5 4.8, then a S4 rear ended him, and a C63 rear ended the S4 and some big car rear ended the C63.

Wondering if the owner was on here =T

Phucking stupid lady. I wonder if she really had a good reason to stomp the brakes? But then again, if everyone wasn't following closely, it probably could have been avoided. I hope everyone is alright.

This is exactly why I don't go on runs lol. Even if you know what you are doing, 30 other guys who don't care about their cars don't!

Are there any other details on the crash? Like the speeds, more pix, etc.?

Hear anything about how the car held up? Like how strong are our frames in terms of safety?

It looks like they were in NYC and probably driving in a very aggressive fashion. I'm not surprised this happened.

SAFETY FIRST

Insurance comes to the rescue, to cover an accident. Anyone get hurt or just egos? Count the blessings.

This is the perfect time to talk about safety. With our brakes we can stop on a dime, but the laws of physics still preside.

One car length for every ten miles an hour, remember that rule of thumb, just might prevent you from bending your bonnet..........gives a fella a little reaction time. Otherwise, Murphy just might sucker you right in........

Can't imagine why people would want to do that.

Traffic, potholes, etc.

Your worst nightmare...
If he is fixing it... I would assume the insurance company did not declare it totaled then.
