I didnt wanna say this and I know I m gonna get flamed for it because he's an idol to many including myself.
But this incident reminds me of the accident we had in vancouver where the Mazda 3 crashed and resulted in 2 deaths (driver and passenger)
Both incidents were because of speeding. And honestly this thread got so much respect while the other just got the "well they deserved it cause they sped like idiots and didn't care about other people's safety".
But again, I m only assuming this incident involves speeding because I ve previously asked and members were saying speeding is a factor. If they weren't then my bad.

You're talking about the Mazda 6 on Lions Gate?
I know the passenger that died and attended his funeral. It was a sad moment.
I think the main point is that people shouldn't drive their cars to its limits on the street, but do so on a track. The owner of AE performance (who was the driver of that CGT) was an experienced driver, but nothing can beat the laws of physics when spinning out of control towards a tree.
I do wonder how fast they were going to have the Carrera GT mangled into such a state.
Obviously speeding was the factor of the crash, but the CGT is notoriously sketchy to drive at the limit. In fact, Walter Rohl once said the car was incredibly scary to drive and that's the same guy who drove a 500+hp 1000kg Audi at over 200km/h in the forest.

i remember that episode of top gear where they "reviewed" the cgt and stig spun out multiple times in it.

I didn't know 45 mph was the CGT's limit.
Using public roads to rip around in is stupid no matter who it is.
If pro driver can lose it driving a sports car on the street, you may want to think twice about pushing your street cars so hard in the future. Even if you don't care about your own life, think of all the others that your death would affect.
