I would agree with this too.... people refer to "racing" their cars at HPDE's all the time... or like you said, auto-x = Racing.....

I think it's safe to say he drives better than all of us in any event.

I posted in the other 'yellow s2000 involved thread.'


RIP to Paul and Roger.


It was a freak accident and very tragic.

ohhh the Media .. . of course there was a S2000 in Cali or at a car event and probably drove by. Doesn't mean it was racing. They just want to make an article.

Interesting stuff about the power steering fluid and lack of skidmarks.

A very high percentage of those Carrera GTs have been wrecked. Hopefully a professional investigation of what happened will be released soon.

Sad to see both of them go.

Seriously, seriously? That tin-foil-hat-society rag? What a hack. I wish I hadn't even clicked on the link - they don't deserve the traffic.
