wasted willys


dont know if this is old but what a waste

Who knows what fueled this latest Scott caused disaster.  Either alcohol or meth or God only knows.
 
Speed?  According to the man whose vehicle he first hit, he reportedly had stopped in the street which runs straight up the hill out of Cameo Shores.  Stood on the gas (this car is  basically without mufflers) and about 2-3 seconds later lost control, side swiped his car as he was headed down the street, hit a curb, launched the car into a concrete brick wall, hit the wall, took a section of it out, the car spun 180 degrees in the air and landed about 10' beyond where the car hit the brick wall, and 3' above street level on the side of a resident's steep front yard where it burned. 
 The car had over 1000 RWHP and tires that put most of it to work.   In the short block he used to accelerate, he had to be doing over 60. At 3600 lbs. this car had a lot of stored energy to get rid of in a hurry.  Had he been wearing the 5-point seat belt that's built into the car, he might have gotten out with a sore body and a bloody nose. 
 He's a licensed drag race driver.  Regularly drives a dragster in the 9.0 sec break out class.  He has to know full well what to do when a high powered car comes lose.  Instinct should have taken over.  I suspect this was no accident, I suspect there was intent.  He could easily have taken out another human being. 
  In the end, my good friends (from kindergarten) got a real bad lesson in how not to raise a child.  Love gone wrong.  Verrrrrrrry sad.

Scott (52) isn't doing well.  Severely crushed/broken face, blood on brain, damage to T1 and T2 of spine, other undisclosed and undiscovered issues highly probable.

 Not saying it's not true...but the whole story sounds funny. Like said, why is it dumped on the street?

If true, it sounds like the dude wanted to commit suicide...?

 For a photo op. There is no way that it crashed and burnt there (actually in the story it says: "launched the car into a concrete brick wall, hit the wall, took a section of it out, the car spun 180 degrees in the air and landed about 10' beyond where the car hit the brick wall, and 3' above street level on the side of a resident's steep front yard where it burned'. 
.... and yes, this story sounds "funny" because of the way it is written ... we all know Scott, right? confuse

The street is to clean for it to have burned right were it sits.and for a non steel bodied car it's in pretty good shape after hiting a brick wall at that speed.Ya doesn't make a whole lotta seens.
