You would think a car with so much technological wizardry would be almost crash proof. Kinda like the Evos. Friggin amateurs.

Sadly, most high performance sports car drivers cannot drive(or not nearly as good as they think), you see that all the time ...

No different from any moron in a Ferrai 430, Carrera GT, or even a Koenegsegg CCX. If anything the GTR has more computer aids to help keep it on the road
