I remember the brand. 
Exact size cannot remember, need to check when buying tyres.
230 in front, 225 at back
Workshop forgot to do tyre rotation for me last round, so currently the front tyres getting more botak than the rears already.

 

hahaha going to do rotation soon? your tyre pressures are pumped based on the info on the door sills that the manufacturer put there?

So the Baux score for the lady is, 
80 + high 20s = <110
Given it's SGH burns center, she should survive. But it will be many months for recovery. And she's malaysian. She's going to end up with a massive hospital bill, even no matter how much they waive off some of the charge for humanitarian reasons.

Do car insurers pay out for people trying to rescue people from their insured burning car? I don't think so.

 

 

Hope she have those hospitalisation insurance

If I have extra money to mod my car, I will get bigger brakes and better tyres.

I will mod it to go safer and slower, not the other way around.

Same for me too, but it's for going that little bit faster , confidently, on wet roads on rainy days [laugh]

They are very lucky it didn't happen during their peak opening hours .. could have been disastrous. 

Would been another totally different tone of letter.

Ya.. I also think so too.. I feel the speed should be around 120 to 130 km/h.but at that speed is enough to kill..

I read somewhere they have circled a few rounds prior to the crash.

On the track, we would do the same.  Round after round for warm up, faster tighter each time.   So its no surprise.

Should have been a sinkhole or the deep blue sea in which they crashed. Save everyone the trouble of cleaning up.

Lol if u think that is 120-130kph. U need a better guesstimator in your brain.
This speed is only seen if u watch performance/racing cars beating it around a track. 

This is either just around 200kph estimated around +-20 kph either way. If u actually ever been to this road, then the estimates by our other MCFer and this guy on the video are pretty much spot on. Given that the video guy timed it to the actual frame the car disappeared from the video, his timing of 1.16s is definitely accurate. So it's only the distance of 71m +- a few metres. Cos from my estimate of the distance IRL, it's very close.

the M4 wouldn't have been able to go at that speed during peak hours - It's a high traffic area.
