I've seen that a while back. I hope there was more damage with his pride, than the car. There are many more on you tube that are much worse.
Tom, check out this one. It's not the worst but, still, very sad. You can't let a woman or man, drive a cobra and not be able to handle it ! Light weight, short wheel base, power and a novice behind the wheel,..... = trouble !
(Tom, you have mail)

Tom,
That is an older video and not really a crash when you can drive away from the accident. Actually the crashes of the Mustang Cobras on that same page are a lot worse especially when they don't know how to control a car with a lot of horse power and forget where the brakes are and keep pressing on the gas pedal.

I think the guy,  was an idiot of letting this woman/man drive the car. Looks like she did not have any experience at all !
A crash is a crash when ever damage is done. Even it's a bumper accident, still a crash. I'm a body man and a insurance would call it a crash.
I've only let two friends drive mine and both race drags and road course.

Kevin,
Not to be argumentative but driving up on the grass and driving away and I'm sure never reported to any insurance company so there fore never being seen by a body man I really don't consider a crash. As with the Mustang Cobra videos they would need your services as they made contact with other cars on the rode.

I apologize, I was looking at a video where a woman was driving, lost control, went across traffic and hitting a pole. That's a crash.
I'll try & post it.

FUNFER2,
You are right about the lady put behind the wheel of a cobra that's a crash but this video is also a couple of years old. That women should not be allowed behind the wheel of any car not just a cobra with tremendous horse power.

Not sure of the date but that video was taken at an event called Coffee N Cars. It's held every saturday morning at 6am in Irvine at the Ford/Volvo/Mazda headquarters. They allow the club to use their parking lot. Many exotics and classics show up each saturday. Event usually ends by 8:30ish.
