Murder by screw
Discussion
Copied thios from another forum..... I dont care what the drivers were up to, someone taking the law into their own hands is totally unacceptable...
I suspect there may be more to the story than meets the eye, but still very very scary!

If there is anybody here that was at Royal Albert way on saturday night you'll probably know or have an idea what happened.
I got there as the road was closed but a couple of people I know were there as it happened and were putting the fire out and trying to help the injured people.
That was a saph cosworth
This is what happens when you street race, apparently he hit the wall, climbed the wall then slammed back into the road at 80mph
To add to this somebody, obviously somebody who doesn't like street racing, took matters into their own hands when they did this
Yes self tapping screws glued to the roads. This is ultimately what caused this horrific crash, the chap had pulled up at the curb side and one of these lodged in his tire, apparently they are hollow screws to let the tyre down like a stinger.
As he drove off it blew his tire out causing the crash
My mates helped tend to the guys but apparently one guy was DOA, one they helped had a broken pelvis and punctured lung and I've heard one got paralyzed from the neck down.
Take care next time you go to something like this.
