That was an unfortunate incident, but some FAST cars come out of their garage. EKanoo has the worlds fastest (6.1x) Supra, and Ebrahim's been in the game for a long time. He was an Austinite for a bit, as well. I have a lot of respect for them.

Glad everyone walked away okay.

BTW, the engine in that beast:

As stupid as it looks, this car below set a record time for FWD at Willow Springs quite a few years back.

There is no way I doubt the garage's ability to produce the monster in the vid. I just thought there would be some wind tunnel testing before allowing someone to sit in it and just 'go for it'.

See link, I'll find a video later to properly embed it, gotta say something about the Lexus' safety features if he walked away with just a scratch

I don't think Toyota put the roll cage in there....
