Very sad, what made it worse was to read his post he posted just a few hours before!

He was on the M5 forums. He was asking about racing on an airport runway (at a legal event a few months away) Someone told him to turn the traction control for best performance.

Nope, but few 200ft off a 85ft drop and hit a tree 15ft high! I would say over 150 easy.

Terrible about that accident, but high speeds can have consequences, even for great drivers.
