larger post in the GT3 forum. Sad, but preventable. I feel bad for his family and for the family of his unwitting passenger. I'm sure he didn't plan to die that way.

It's a shame, he was a nice guy. There was a BMW guy I know that was personal friends with him and always used to talk about how cool and relaxed he was. What a tragedy.

+1. RIP, but we need to be safe out there. There are some hazards that we can't control, but others that we can try to.

ogomez79 is infamous around these parts
I never would have guessed it was a gt3 either if it didn't say that in the article. Such a sad and preventable tragedy.

There is certainly a gloomy irony to the jackass charecter and antics of the stunts and this horrible tragedy ... perhaps in a positive twist, Johnny Knoxville, Bam and the others can use this somehow to deter their jackassery raving viewers from repeating this kind of DD fatality.

My thoughts are with the passenger. Double the legal limit for BAC. Sad, preventable and just plain stupid.
