Bottom line types of speed these guys were doing to rip car apart was not acceptable for street. I feel sorrow for them and their families but hey man they made bad decision. If I biff it doing 100 on street I don't expect sorrow from people who don't know me personally. People would be free to call me an idiot. So why is Mr Rodas off limits? He was just another guy making stupid move on street. FYI I never speed excessively with passengers. ...Never. I have seen north of 150 mph on deserted road by myself with miles of visibility with no traffic but let's say I had blow out and rolled. I'd just be another asswad driving way to fast on the street.

I hear about all the emotional denials of drag racing but you don't have to drag race to be dangerous on surface streets. I suspect they will find that car was moving way too fast and just got away from driver. The debris spray seen in pics indicates very fast speeds. I feel sorry for Paul as I believe he wouldn't have put someone in danger like mr rodas did. And fact he had teenage daughter is tough too. Feel very bad for her.

Also consider if mr rodas had survived and Paul died I suspect manslaughter charges or wrongful death suit would have happened.
