I was very close to the driver. He was 29 years old, a business owner of a home health care who cater to the elderly. He was one of the most caring men I have ever met. The passenger was a doctor who works with all of his clients. The car was rented for him to take his wife out for an evening. He belonged to Gotham City Motor Club (I think??) Please everyone, be safe when driving these fast cars. He left a wife, 4 year old beautiful daughter who was his best friend, and a 13 month old. This has been so difficult for everyone in the family and all of the people he knew. Please keep Adam and his family in your prayers! This is the first blog I have read that no one is bashing him. All of the Philly news sites keep saying how retarded he is. It kills us to read that stuff.

Well that is the problem with exotic rental car companies. I was thinking about starting up a business like that in the Philadelphia area acouple years back. I have personal built a lot of really high horsepower (700HP+)rides. And its not just simply about good or bad drivers. The game is having the experience of driving any highpower 500 hp+ vehicle. It's like a Pilot in a airplane, your limits come up really fast, you need to know what is going on, what to do or what not to do and knowing your flight path. Everybody has their own ideals of what a really fast car is, until they have been in one, then they know. Sometimes it's too late by then. When you step into Vipers , lambo's, the latest Ferrari's. These cars are truly race track vehicles allowed on the common roadways. I would hate to rent highpower (500+Hp) cars to un-experienced drivers. You cant drive these cars like regular cars on any road. That's why I never entertain that business since then. I would have to prey everyday that my rental would come back or the police calling me about the accident or even worse, that someone has gotten killed.

Everyone out there be safe.

I have rented that Murcielago from Gotham back in Decemeber..If it is your 1st real powerful car to drive and your not too use to it I would not do 125mph. I did fish tail that same Murci because the ground was alil wett at a slow speed and it is no joke,So I can see how that crash happened with the Murci. But my prayers go out to all of them RIP...So sad to hear this.
