Intresting

Im not posting this to be off topic. I was a bit integrated yet discussed to see that this is considered art, but it was kinda interesting to see the 3rdgen buckle in half, its a understatement to say that 3rdgen unibodys are weak.

I fully do not agree with this art at all and i feel that calling this "simulating a head on automobile collision" is false this is not a realistic simulating of a head on collision, collisions involve forces both objects are being pull against each other i assume by cables? theirs no acceleration, speed, velocity involved so there is no kinetic energy to release on a impact. I end with what a waste of aero ground effects and some decent looking cars that had potential.

Re: Intresting

Painful to see. It even bothers me when I see "American Muscle" or really any car destroyed in films. I can not understand were some one would get their kicks watching that. Just my opinion !

Re: Intresting

I hear what you are saying. It was sad to see all of those Chargers ruined (even though it is Mopar) during the Dukes of Hazzard original TV show. As for 3rd gens, I wonder how many are destroyed each day. Whether is by a car accident, someone parting one out, a junk yard crushing one, or by someone using them as "art" by smashing the front ends up.
