R35 GT-R catches on fire after colliding with a Volkswagen MK6 Golf GTI

Not sure too sure as to what actually happened but judging from the absence of any other damaged vehicles in the video, it is most likely that the Golf GTI collided with the Nissan R35 GT-R and that set off the resulting inferno. 

Speculating
It looks like the GTI could have perhaps gone too fast and understeered onto the next lane, clipped the R35 from the opposite direction, and the GTR spun out and hit the tree and exploded.



The road does bear some resemblance to the locales in and around Bukit Tinggi but a friend says it happened somewhere near Kuala Klawang. Anyway, hope no one was hurt.

Typical of most driver of such cars with too much horsepower and barely enough skill. Another example of a wanker. All show. Dunno how to make it go!

R35? Nothing left? It's a waste..:(
seems like they were having some kind of convoy or something

Convoys up/downhill drives are typical. This seemed to be a group of R35 owners with a sprinkle of other cars as well.

Won't say the R35 driver was a wanker as for all u noe the driver of the other car was trying to overtake in the corner and in the opposite direction.

One of the definitions of a wanker in my book is a person who goes around calling people wankers but to chicken shit to make themselves known.

Loki, BR is looking for some action uphill this Sunday (and perhaps a night 'cruise' just before.. LOL).
