Why is it every time I see a Ferrari in a wreck , the damn thing is always split in two halves like that just in front
of the rear firewall?
Man, that's what scares the hell outta me about Ferraris.
Just sheered in 2 pieces. I don't know if they purposely design it like
that or what, but I'm like WTF?!!! they can design Formula 1 cars to
withstand 150-170mph accidents and the drivers cell doesn't SPLIT INTO TWO PIECES,
but their street cars do and more often than not, the driver and
passenger end up dead.
Full story after the pics ...
Charles Lewis Jr., better known to MMA fans as “Mask,” was killed in a
hit-and-run accident early Wednesday morning in Newport Beach, Calif. Lewis was the founder of Tapout Clothing, Inc., and the face of its
popular reality show on cable channel Versus. Several sources within
the company confirmed his passing.
At 12:57 a.m., a Newport Beach Police cruiser spotted Lewis’ red
Ferrari and a white Porsche driving out of control on the southbound
side of Jamboree Road, according to Lt. Jim Amormino, a public
information officer with the Orange County Sheriff’s Dept.
The Ferrari then struck the curb and hit a street light, tearing the
car in half. After coming to a brief stop, the Porsche fled the scene. An unnamed female passenger was ejected from Lewis’ car in the crash.
Newport Beach paramedics pronounced Lewis dead at the scene.
Newport Beach officers later spotted the Porsche and stopped its
passengers, a male and female, who were seen walking away from the
vehicle. Upon further investigation officers determined that the male, Jeffrey
David Kirby, a 51-year-old resident of Costa Mesa, Calif., was the
driver of the vehicle.
Kirby was arrested for gross vehicular manslaughter and taken to the
Newport Beach Police Department. The female passenger, Lynn Marie
Nabozny, a 32-year-old resident of Newport Beach, was arrested for
public intoxication and released Wednesday morning. Kirby’s bail is set at $1 million. The results of a blood alcohol test
administered at the jail are forthcoming. No further motive for the
accident is known at this time, according to Amormino.
