That pic is truly scary... we still have some Silverstone's not heard from

This is a reminder to NOT do the stupid things on the road... when they belong on an autox... I know that Channel 6 image will slow me down a bit

Wow that's surreal, 2 S2000's in 1 crash, hopefully everyone here is alright. From what the report said the driver in the Yellow S2K was not hurt, the driver in the silver died and the passenger was in critical condition. Judging from the pics and report it looked like a very busy road, completely unsafe for driving at those speeds. What a shame a family so close to us (location wise) is going to be missing a son during the holidays...

here is what the Phila. Enquirer had

Car crash in Olney kills driver, injures passenger

The driver of a Honda convertible sports car died yesterday when he lost control of the vehicle and was thrown during a crash shortly after 2 p.m. on Roosevelt Boulevard in Olney, police said.

The driver, a 20-year-old man from Philadelphia, was pronounced dead at the scene. A passenger was taken to Albert Einstein Medical Center and remained in critical condition last night. Police withheld their names pending notification of family.

Police said the driver was speeding south on the boulevard when he lost control at C Street. The car split in two after striking two poles and a tree.
a 20 yr old man

The news report said the driver was ejected from the car. This means that he wasn't wearing a seatbelt so it must mean it wasn't someone from here, we're all smart enought to wear them right???

Thank you to Mike, Jen, and Anthony for calling me to make sure everything was ok and to inform me of this grave incident.

Jay, we know that it wasn't the Asian male that we met in olde city over the summer since he was older than 20.

My question is how many young drivers do we NOT know? It cannot be possible we don't know either driver in the incident (though I am praying we don't)

Is anyone up for finding out when the funeral is so we can attend as a group???

I am not sure that is true from the looks of the debris. the car was split in half.

Two words to keep in mind, Street Racing!
