No, but if you're in a car with someone going that fast on a public road, my sympathy is almost none.

Charity event to show off and whatnot. You lose control, much sympathy, you were doing what you do just to help out.

Exactly. And what charity event calls for the kind of speed that ends in an accident like that? Every charity car event I've seen has been a low speed cruise, not WOT in a carerra gt.

What would you do? Yank the E brake? It's all the same and everyone here has and still does. Rather it be 100+ or spirited driving which we all know is not innocent. A simple illegal U turn can be the exact same thing.

Oh come on. An illegal u turn doesn't end with a car burnt to the ground. You mean at no point the passenger could have told his friend to slow down? It's a crappy situation for those left behind, but lets not canonize someone for going along for a joyride on a public street in his buddy's Porsche.

It's not really the it being illegal, it is more you put others at risk, they could have hit another car, causing others to die or be injured.
You live with the consequences of your actions or the actions you put yourself into.
I am sure Paul is a better driver than the guy driving, but you got in the car. You trusted him, sorry you died, but no one forced you to.

But yeah, as Jeremy Clarkson says, it would be better to go through the pearly gates backwards in flames

Alstann · 11-30-2013, 11:43 PM

This crash happened outside his shop, AEperformance. A source said it involved no drugs or alcohol, and I'm assuming the driver was hooning the car beyond a safe limit.
