This is why you don't race or drive like an A#@ on the highways

[DFWtechie]

An Arlington man who apparently was racing another vehicle on Texas 360 died Sunday when his car smashed into the rear of a sport utility vehicle.

Avinash Bajracharya, 22, was driving a 2007 Toyota Scion at a "very high speed" when the crash occurred about 10:20 a.m. at Riverside Parkway.

Police said the car was northbound on Texas 360 and swerving through traffic when it hit a 2004 Chevrolet Avalanche, causing the car to spin out of control, hit a retaining wall and flip twice.

Bajracharya was partially ejected. He was taken to Parkland Memorial Hospital in Dallas where he died at 12:22 p.m.

The driver of the Avalanche, a 63-year-old Arlington man, was not injured.

Witnesses reported that Bajracharya was racing another car on the freeway at the time of the crash.

The other car is described as either a gray Audi (possibly a TT or an R8) or a Nissan 350Z.

Anyone with information about this car is asked to call the Grand Prairie Police Department Traffic Division at 972-237-8906.

This is the fourth traffic fatality in Grand Prairie this year.



Sounds like he got exactly what he deserved for racing on the public roadways.

[Adam]

Damn that sucks....

[Juiced4V]

Hard lesson learned

[grape]

it was a scion, how fast could it have been going.... :confused:

[slowimport96]

It is unfortunate that the guy in the scion wont ever had a chance to correct his actions. :(

[SouthernSVT]

Thats what happens when you think a scion is a race car

[line-em-up]

It is unfortunate that the guy in the scion wont ever had a chance to correct his actions. :(


You're right. He won't ever be able to live down the fact that he drove an ugly ass scion.

Avinash < Avalanche

[StangTamer]

That's fucked up. Nobody deserves to die just because they were street racing. You're a hypocrite.

[dan03mach]

I'm just glad the old man in the Avalanche didn't get hurt...

[HobieF3]

Weaving at high speed through cars isn't street racing, it's faggotry.

[busted90]

2007 Toyota Scion at a "very high speed" down hill floored for 2 miles=90 hehe.
That sucks he died but live and learn.

[Ted]

Partially ejected? I'm sick in the head I guess for seeing exactlly what that meant.

Meat slicer?

Sucks for the dude but i'm glad that the old guy was OK.

[93blowngreenlx]

That is an odd statement :confused:

[busted90]

Yup some have to learn the hard way.

[32VfromHell]

i think there is a reasonable chance there is no connection with the 350z/audi. Remember how often there are "reports" on "dangerous street racing" , when its really just one guy driving like an asshole really fast.

[EDSGT]

that sucks..

[The Raven]

live and learn.


Or not.

.


Are the r8's even out yet?

[STROKD]

That is terrible a guy lost his life, but this is a little different than what happens in Mexico.. we don't draft cars going 1/3 our speed and lane change. :o

[elzoro]

what kind of racing do you do in mexico?

[The Raven]

what kind of racing do you do in mexico?


You know, the other kind of racing. The kind where the idiots driving actually live.

[michaelts71]

If your gonna race on the street, dont do it on the effin highway and dont do it when your in traffic..........thats just retarded!

[my dixie wrecked]

it was a scion, how fast could it have been going.... :confused:
4 and I dont care what anyone else says. :D














This being the reason we sold ours.

[Slowhand]

Are the r8's even out yet?

nope. i was about to post that.

[Grant]

Avinash < Avalanche

haha

[Beaterjuiced]

Bajracharya was partially ejected.




Avinash < Scion

[slow55]

You know, the other kind of racing. The kind where the idiots driving actually live.
So far.

[Cooter]

haha

thank you! hell, I even laughed! lame, I know, but damn, I thought it was clever! :)

[Mach1Marauder]

So far.
Yep!

[agiraldo]

I saw this accident. COming back from school the SCION was TOASTED. The roof had peeled back like a can of sardines.....

The car looked burnt and it looked unrecognizable

[ALLAN]

I've seen the same thing happen at numerous race tracks.

[Mach1Marauder]

I've seen the same thing happen at numerous race tracks.
But at the track, BOTH people KNEW they were racing.

[airbrush]

it sucks but you shouldnt do it if you can drive...and for the one who ask what kind of racing they do in mexico they do some bad ass drag racing :D

[michaelts71]

That sucks, 360 speedway can be very dangerous! :(

[Mustangman_2000]

it's nice to hear that the innocent party in the avalanche didn't get injured from someone else's carelessness.

that's not usually the case with street racing tragedies.

[Zinc_Stang]

Is it me or are a lot of these street racing accidents/deaths kids in imports? What makes it worse is the fact that they could be drugg by 90% of the cars/trucks/suv's driving around. I remember dragging a prelude in our GMC Envoy on 121, you should of seen this kids face. They shouldn't be racing.

[Osiris]

Something tells me that this was NOT what he was racing against....

This bad boy has the same motor out of the Gallardo.
