GT40 crash in Worcester, MA
Thursday, February 09, 2006 7:39 AM



As seen on the front page of the Worcester T&G, George Chambers (owner maybe) of Herb Chambers crashed his GT40 doing 60 (so he claimed) in a 30.

What a waste of a $166,000 car. The best part is that is was on dealer plates.

RIP Ford GT40
2005 - 2006

If thats what happens to a supercar at 60, I would hate to see what happens to a jbody at 60.

That car has no "S" on its chest ! Hmm, I'd venture to say its no longer able to leep tall buildings and a toy locomotive has it beat now.

I could see that happening at 60mph. 60mph is a pretty decent speed, especially when coliding with something or rolling. That pic is also after they extracted whoever was in the car, so some of that damage can be attributed to a hydraulic cutter and the jaws of life.

Was gonna say not allot of cars hold up to good at 60. And isn't most of that car aluminum? or is it Ciber fiber? I watched the build of the car one day on tv. I don't recall what they used in making the car

i hope the guy is OK, regardless of his driving. although i find it VERY hard to believe he was only doing 30...id say at least 50, considering the body of that car cant be very strong. as far as i know, correct me if im wrong, isint it fiberglass/carbon fiber? doing 30 in that car is pretty hard i would assume!! HA!

those things are designed to go fast and weight nothing, not survive crashes. Hell ford actually came up with a new revolutionary way to put paint on it so it can weigh even less! They are made of aluminum and some other composite materials, so it doing 60 and looking like that isnt so unreasonable. But if he is anything like me, if he said 60, he was really doing 90.
