Death at chuckwalla
 

This was in the local paper. http://www.mydesert.com/apps/pbcs.dl...nclick_check=1

Looks wide open, must have hit the only barrier in the place.

Not knowing the full story, but make sure you drive within your own and the cars limitis.

Sad to read this.

Sucks because i'll be going there next weekend, they were young kids, I think around 21ish...

Yeah I read the article... young asian girl was riding in the passenger side of her boyfriend's car at the track.

I don't think I'll let my significant other ride along with me at the track ever again x_x

Her memorial video on youtube:



RIP Chelsea Vu

RIP to her, but don't think that's her youtube channel. She's still active and commenting on other videos as her activities shows.

Nonetheless, terrible and sad news.

Damn, that's aweful. It doesn't seem like there's anything to hit based on that aerial shot. Looks like all open desert except for pit lane.

very sad :(

T12 there is a tower, must have dropped 2 wheels and hooked back to track to hit that tower and its pretty far out. sucks....

You may be right... I'll just edit the post and replace it with her memorial video.

Sad news.. sad news indeed.

I found this on Tumblr.

So sad...

I'm saddened to hear the NEWS of the Death of this young girl :(

My condolences go out to her family and friends.

RIP Chelsea Vu

Is that why it's not recommended to have a Harness like that without a HANS device??
