Just heard that Nick is out of the hospital. Glad he is okay and not seriously injured. His passenger is still in the hospital in critical condition and I hope you all stop bickering and send your thoughts and prayers out to him.
Some dude wrecks a Ferrari or a lambo we call him a idiot
Celebrity/"pro" wrecks a supra we wish him a speedy recovery
People are funny....
dude, steffan erikson is my *Censored**Censored**Censored**Censored*ing hero, tore an enzo to pieces and ran into the woods, and have you read his life story? dude's crazy shady. <3
everyone on this forum likes drifting, therefore is a car guy who likes traveling at high rates of speed and making tire smoke.
honestly if i had access to a 800 hp supra id have done that eventually at his age.
i hope everyone turns out okay, its big news everywhere, i really feel sorry for him. hes a young kid just like we all are/once were/still are and everyone on this forum has done stuff that wasnt the smartest thing to do but it was fun and well still do it anyways. i hope everyone comes out okay, that really sucks.
Yes,
It's confirmed Nick is out of the hospital.
I spoke to him personally,
he broke his arm and is VERY sore, shaken of course.
He was headed back to the hospital to visit his passenger that is still in there.
He informed me that he hydroplaned and lost control of the vehicle, he actually attempted to dodge a puddle and there was somebody next to him, too late.
Bottomline, I'm sure he's very shaken and will get hammered on because that's the nature and world we live in.
Accident is an accident, foolish or whatever.
Nick is out of the hopsital and suffered a broken arm, yet he's heading back ot the hospital and concerned about his boy John.

Let's be supportive and less negative.
From what i remember, that street is 40-45mph, I dont see how you could create that sort of damage from a 40 mph crash, i could be wrong though.
apparently he already had a ticket from earlier in the month from going 82 into a 45mph construction zone and not wearing his seat belt.
additional reports that there were multiple witnesses that saw him racing a silver viper during the time of his accident.
i do hope he recovers, but in the same breath I hope he learns from his mistake and starts driving on the streets responsibly
Yea, I bet hes a nice guy and is a decent driver after mopar invested hundreds of thousands just to teach him how to. Seriously guys, cut the naive act. We've been through this a thousands times, there's tons of drivers better them him without his sponsors... why because they aren't famous and don't have there own TV shows. Show respect to the privateers now, the real heroes of our sport.
But in any sense, what he did was pure idiocy.
Driving stupid on a public road with a very high powered illegally modified car (well in so cal anyways lol)
Destroyed the car while driving stupid
Got him self hurt in the process
Also got the passenger in the car even more seriously hurt (if he doesnt survive, he will be up for manslaughter)
The dudes a idiot, I'm sorry just a rich kid with fast cars with no disregard for the law, his life and others. I hope this accident knocked some sense in him. And yea, I would probably do the same thing his age with a car like that, but there's a reason why people don't buy there kids 800hp vehicles... screw it... there's a reason that not that many people in general buy and drive 800hp vehicles on the street. Its just not a practical or safe idea.
Its funny, people said worst things about Eddie griffin when he crashed at irwindale... and he was on a track and didn't injure himself or others.
Again, dude crashes a Ferrari on the track and walks away without a scratch hes a idiot.
Dude wrecks a 800HP supra on a public road injuring him self, his passenger, and maybe the reputation of the sport he competes in and we love and we wish him a speedy recovery.
the sport will not be 'ruined' because of a possibly weather-related, single-car accident on an public road in a street car. Remember, police said there was no signs of racing or 'drifting'.
The sponsors who work with Nick are getting a lot more publicity than 90% of the sponsors in the sport. In the end, sponsors want publicity and 'impressions'. They took a risk with a young driver, and I'd say they're paying off well.
Lay off the guy. We still don't even know full details of the situation. If it was a mistake, it was a mistake. if it wasn't a mistake and the car lost control because it hydroplaned, is there really anything anyone could have done?

Again...
Stop being so naive
Look at those pics, you watch option videos. You seen people drift at high speeds in the rain and crash.... they don't get there cars ripped in two. Rain no rain puddle or no puddle, accidents don't happen like that going 45.
There's a way from keeping your self from hydroplaning, its called driving safely. Hes a formula D/NOPI licensed driver, he should really know better.
I'm not going to brown nose him, just telling the truth. I really hope this knocked some sense into him.
You sound like one of those 15yo Brittany spears fanatics... she can do drugs, drop her baby, crash her car and still in your mind she's a genuinely good person.

wipe off your noses
All I heard it "Rich, Famous, TV deal"
You sir are a hater. If you wanna hate on him, do it somewhere else cause everyone here wishes him well. It's funny that you and Double nut star say these things on a forum.
In real life you would be the first one in line to meet him and his father hoping you actually got your face on Nopi Tunervision so you could point out to your wannabe drifter friends that you were on TV. People like you all make me sick.
Come to events and run that flap on the front of your face, don't save it for the forums.
Prayers go out to Nick and the Hogan family. No matter what the circumstances are, they will have to live with what happened, and knowing how nice they area, it will be hard on them knowing that the passenger is stil in the hospital.
So if you are gonna hate, GTFO of here because mods aren't gonna take it I can assure you.

hhahahahahahahahahah
rofl
are you for real man
there is no hate here, just constructive criticism, if all you read "Rich, Famous, TV deal" you must have a 3rd grade reading level. I don't blame or hate sponsors for sponsoring him. Its smart, if I was in there shoes I would do the same thing.
Nick Hogan ain't nothing more then a human being, his father on the other hand....
I was more of a randy savage fan in my day lol jk
All I'm saying here is the truth, cant handle it you gtfo. I don't brown nose dudes just because they have famous parents and can drift a little bit. If you do something utterly stupid, I'm gonna call it as that. And believe me, I would definitely tell him to his face what he did was stupid... but why do that, I'm pretty sure his parents already did.
But lets not jump to conclusion, we all know celebrities make wonderful parents.
And for reals, its a open discussion, everyone has the right to say what they want about the subject. As long as am not cursing or making threats its all fair game.
