Never got into the Fast and the Furious movies, but a real shame.

From the report, it sounds like there may have been some showboating involved which led to the crash.
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

Fom what I read 45 not 15 but still not a likely result. The rubber figure 8's could have ben from anyone but....
No matter he was a passenger and now he is dead, along with the driver. It sucks for both and for both families and all their friends.

It's just sad how fast some people are to joke about this stuff. Makes me furious.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

Sad deal indeed. I wonder if he was practicing for "FnF: Compton Cracker Run"?

He was pretty good in "running scared" and surely knew what to do with Jessica Alba's rear end as she swam past him in "into the blue".

He was a long time lurker/secret poster on mixedmartialarts.com forums with a brown belt in Brazilian jiu jitsu.

That car looks pretty torn apart, must have been some impact to rupture the fuel tank.
... missions were to be met by the commitment of alerted swarms of fighters, composed of Me 109's and Fw 190's, that were strategically based to protect industrial installations. The inferior capabilities of these fighters against the Mosquitoes made this a hopeless and uneconomical effort. 1.JD KTB
