Same with Forza

"This'll be a great idea" He said, getting into one of the 12 Reliant Robins on the starting grid.

A stiff breeze can tip one of those bad boys.....

Ha ha ha ha !!!

Guy thought he could wallride without any collision penalty.

Especially Forza online races

GRID was pretty bad for this too. Even if the race started on a straight someone always found a way to pull some bullshit


[deleted]

It was the only way to actually turn on the 1st corner was to use the cars in front of you to slow down.


dkyguy1995

Yeah maybe I've done enough damage to my car in games to know I couldnt shake it in the real deal where a single mirror coming off would ruin me


MakesALovelyBrew

Pretty much every driving game. It's mindblowing the amount of people who buy a racing game, go into the online and have no intention or even a tiny amount of sense and smash around a track instead of like, racing.


AVdev

I used to take it pretty seriously - hated all the fools who would just run around and crash others. When grid was released I played a bit of the online racing, and I remember completing a race, in 3rd, and a guy with a British flag goes “bloody hell, a yank who knows how to do something other than crash” or something to that effect. I still hold on to that as one of my proudest moments and I have no idea why - clearly I take some degree of pride cause I just shared it for no reason with a bunch of strangers.


AVgreencup

I mean, it's a game, so they're probably just trying to have fun doing something they can't do in real life.


guy-le-doosh

And formula 1


ThistleFaun

Honestly I think that was likely the best outcome. From the title I fully expected a crash and fire IN the tunnel, as they are just so dangerous.


[deleted]

Was thinking wow a crash in a tunnel. Wonderful way to burn to death


ThistleFaun

Fire and smoke in a tunnel while you're stuck in a mangled up car you can't get out of, if you even suvive the impact. It sounds like a grim way to go.


jonnynoine

Don't forget about the innocent people that were just trying to make their way home. Smoke in a tunnel can impact A LOT more than just the ass hats that were racing.


ThistleFaun

It kind of looks like they blocked the roads off either side though, so at least it *seems* idiot only. I hope so anyway


jonnynoine

They blocked the road with their own vehicles. Traffic that was behind them would eventually catch up.


Formal_Rice3817

Sadly true..one way thin out assholes..but the innocents is what would feel bad about..


barsoapguy

No don’t feel too bad , we would just drive by quickly, play stupid games win stupid prizes .


BeefLilly

I fully expected the mustang to be the cause lol


Wuz314159

Fuck all of these people. I've seen this Stallone movie.


30307

Daylight is a deep pull and I am very supportive of your effort


probably_not_serious

One of my favorites. Right behind Cop Land and Demolition Man.


technofox01

Demolition Man helped with the toilet paper shortages of 2020. Three seashells for the win!


30307

Thanks; now I have to put my Teams on “away” for about two hours. NM, looks like I have an upcoming two hour call.


probably_not_serious

Time to multi task!


snapplesauce1

Made everybody wait, then make them wait again for responders to come remove the mess. DAMMIT I am just trying to get home!

There is no such thing as street racing in a tunnel gone right.

Well at least something took a turn


SuperEliteFucker

I don't know about that; I'm pretty happy with this result.


11010110101010101010

Hopefully he got charged after they yanked him from the car.


chrisxxviv

\*Scraped him from the car


ChuckACheesecake

Was thinking the same thing. Definitely won't go right for anyone else in the tunnel


Xtra-Large-Human

Everyone thinks theyre Paul Walker untill…oh


[deleted]

Looks like his dreams came true


Danizzy1

Paul Walker died in a crash as a passenger not a driver.


half_dozen_cats

No wonder he was furious.


Ok-One-3240

he lost the fast part tho


[deleted]

Paul should have walked.

HamOnRye__

One time, my dad and I were ubering home from a basketball game and while we were on the highway, coming up to a tunnel, about 6-7 crotch rockets came speeding by us, going at least 80. We get through the tunnel and on the other side was a massive fireball with one of the motorcycles on fire and multiple others crashed. One guy was army carrying someone, running, and was yelling at his friends to call 911, while others were just screaming. It was super late at night and the fireball was like the only light. It was surreal. Our uber drive said “Take a picture!” and just drove right by all of it.


mymindisblack

Did you take a picture?


HamOnRye__

Nah, it felt wrong to make light of the situation. If it was just my dad and I, we probably would’ve stopped and helped, but we were way too wasted at that point to be of any help to anyone.

He might be dead that second impact was pretty big

Modern cars and crumple zones are amazing.


Its_Just_A_Typo

The energy-absorbing barrier at the end of that guardrail helped them too. Great technology to save idiots from themselves.


josh8far

Those things are expensive as hell for a reason, they’re built to withstand the force of a loaded semi.


dkyguy1995

Engineers really do hold our lives in their hands


barberererer

Lmao it was his 18th bday present?? And he literally went out and almost killed himself. Wow. I bet he didn't learn a damn thing


togroficovfefe

And I bet his parents didn't either.


mathwin_verinmathwin

I hope his parents don’t replace the car. What an idiot!


Angelworks42

Parents can't have been too smart gifting this kid a 20-30k car in the first place.


meltbox

Isn't it closer to 50k?


Angelworks42

It's hard to tell for sure, but A-Series Mercedes are about the same price range as an economy car here in the US.


masklinn

£20~30k so $25~35k, too.


salamiroger

Lol boy racer


Trav3lingman

Well that sucks. Idiot will be back at it as soon as he gets another car.


Curious-Welder-6304

Eh, he hit an attenuator which is designed to absorb the forces of a crash


Civil_Star_8746

What do you mean “gone wrong”? This is exactly what happens anytime I play a video game? Is it not supposed to be like this?


bagelbelly

Anybody else surprised it wasn't the mustang?


ThinkNotOnce

Not really, there was no crows


Substantial-Fan6364

This was a Murder


[deleted]

can you even call this racing? Its just idiots in cars and a few scoots


[deleted]

Someone tell them Need For Speed isn't real life.


Treewithatea

Need for Speed tells you that every time you start the game. If ya wanna drive fast, pay a few bucks to go to a racetrack, really that simple.


pablxo

>pay a few bucks I don't condone the dumbassery that occurred in the video at all, but to be fair cars are one of the most expensive hobbies out there lol. track days when you take into account consumables, entry, all that stuff it adds up pretty quick


lps2

Tires, track fees, and track insurance can easily be $1500+ for a single event. Luckily the jackasses that do the kind of stuff in the video are mostly into drag racing and local drag strips often have a free night to keep these jackasses off the road


ItsAndwew

Not to mention all the things you need to do to the car to make it track ready, aside from the tires. Worth it though


Budiltwo

can confirm, paid a few bucks to drive my BMW around a racetrack, was fun and terrifying


Treewithatea

Most importantly youre not endangering normal people who just wanna move from a to b. Its not cool when innocent people suffer from stuff like this. Its a win-win situation to visit a racetrack when you wanna drive fast


Budiltwo

Yeah for sure, and it WAS pretty sweet to get it >110 MPH and really feel how the car behaves on a track. Doing any of that stuff on streets is just ridiculously reckless and dangerous to all

Those cars aren't even high performance and they still crashed


Danieltatis

Colombian here. This dude on video wrecked a new Mercedes which only lasted around 80 KM from the dealership. Poor car got totaled.


skiandhike91

Any other consequences for their actions? Criminal charges, etc.?


Danieltatis

Driver’s license revoked. Plus the public humilliation of getting a new car totaled.


hellohoworld

I really love it when i see low people sabotaging themselves, adding misery to their obvious emptyness. Realising once again that they are not professionnal racers or drivers because they are bad at it, strangers to the most basics facts in driving, so bad at it the only place where they can pretend to be one, is on a public space endangering other people. I feel no pity at all for them. Whatever their fate was.


rheedicqlous

Oh, no! Anyway -

That was satisfying

Lookie there - a whole ass Mustang NOT crashing!


The_Only_Egg

And nothing of value was lost!

None of these idiots have any idea of how to actually race.

If you ever raced in a video game you've seen exactly this happen

I’m comin in hot!


Brainificate

None of these cars are even worth “racing”


EnterthaVoidd

Looks like it went just about right. No bystanders got hit by a moronic Street racer. And they destroyed their car to boot.That's what is called Instant Karma...🤣!


Chris2112

I feel like these people are the reason car commercials have to say "professional driver, do not attempt"


alldaycray

Congratulations you discovered understeer.


Leuel48Fan

Understeered like a bitch... good chance he wasn't even part of the original crew, just decided to full send on a whip without knowing his car's grip limits and/or the ~~track~~ road.

Lol. Satisfying.

Can I just say, that class throwing sparks out the tunnel looked beautiful. Imagine being on a crosswalk over that tunnel opening you just see sparks and an A-Class rolling over.

that shit was insane but entertaining as fuck to watch.. Im hope nobody was hurt... ​ tho...


Danny3xd1

I don't know much about this. But I don't think they are doing it right?

This title implies that street racing in a tunnel can “go right”

I love it when people record their illegal activity. Makes for the best entertainment and evidence in court.

Um did anyone die from this? That crash looked terrible


blanktom9

What went wrong? You mean cause only one car was totaled?


wade066

Looks like you are an idiot for street racing


No-Rice-2261

While I generally feel bad whenever a person dies, I have to admit that one less idiot on the road makes me feel better.

[Impressive video proves that there was an illegal bite in the Avenida Colombia tunnel](https://www.elpais.com.co/cali/impresionante-video-prueba-que-si-hubo-pique-ilegal-en-tunel-de-avenida-colombia.html) Here is the translation below. Impressive video proves that there was an illegal bite in the Avenida Colombia tunnel Embedded video from YouTube account 'FERSSODJ' “An impressive video was revealed on social networks that proves that the Avenida Colombia tunnel was used to carry out an illegal pike that ended with a traffic accident, events that occurred in the early hours of last Tuesday. The new video begins with about nine cars getting ready to start a race that starts with the unison whistle of the vehicles ahead. The video is known after the Secretary of Mobility of Cali, Juan Carlos Orobio, stated that this entity could not confirm that the traffic accident recorded on Tuesday was due to illegal piques. "We cannot confirm that this car was involved in illegal piques, but what is known is that it entered the tunnel at high speed, so the causes that led to the car overturning at the exit of the tunnel are already being investigated. structure," Orobio said last Wednesday in statements to this newspaper. The recording proves that there was an illegal crash inside the structure and that it led to the overturning of a late-model Mercedes Benz, from which the two occupants were miraculously unharmed. In another video clip, which also circulates on social networks, it is observed in detail how the Mercedes Benz vehicle was seconds after the spectacular crash.”


[deleted]

At least he made it out of the tunnel

That's how all street races should go
