Reminder: Speed kills!

i would say that stupidity and sudden cessation of speed contributed more to the "kill" part of this story than speed itself.
maybe i'm just grumpy from all this ^%&* travel but i hate that phrase. Speed does not necessarily kill. otherwise a whole bunch of us on this board would already be dead.

Yeah, it's true that judgment (or the complete LACK of it) was at fault here, but speed definitely adds to the risk of injury even for experienced drivers. Witness the totaling of an S2K by an experienced driver at PIR this past weekend. Everyone who's spent time at the track has made mistakes. Some of then prove costly. Others don't, but it's often pure luck that distinguishes one from another....

Mike - you couldn't be more right.
I've got bad genes so I figure the time to live it up is now.
Hard to believe that all the years of cell phone usage while driving haven't killed me yet. (inside joke for Mike)
A picture taken by cell phone of my killer dog at speed. I didn't have a gun in the car with me - only my trusty Benchmade.
