No...but I bet speed was a factor.

Ya think?

Rip!

Sad outcome for a very bad driver in a fast car making really poor decisions.

Speed or taking selfies or texting...just saying. They James Deaned that mutha for sure!

Angeles Crest is a really bad place to run out of talent in a car. It's a very high speed road until it isn't. :(

Looks like he went to the Breakfast Club up at Newcombe’s…sad but I really feel for the person who decided to ride up there in the passenger seat. I will never ride in the right seat with anyone in the canyons again. There is simply no upside to it.

Wow that's ugly . RIP to both and best wishes for all families affected .

Angel's Crest...I've read about it many times. So, another story. Frankly, glad I don't have to drive it when just going somewhere. Thinking of innocents getting unwillingly caught up in the craziness...

Kinda funny how your thinking changes as you age. Being old, I don't have any urge to prove anything.

“Angeles” Crest. It’s a National Forest.

Not a lot of side roads/intersections then. That's good.

Yes. He was a guy on PCLUB here in LA. Apparently a fairly seasoned driver. He went with his son to the Good Vibes Breakfast Club. Just rolled it into a ditch, said a following driver.

Never go on Angles Crest on a Saturday.

(Unless your coming from the east thru Wrightwood and you don't go past Newcombs Ranch)

His social media account video shows a red GT3 being driven pretty hard. So, his son was the second fatality? If so, that's awful.

I hate that I agree with this.

A930Rocket 09-18-2022 03:08 AM

It could’ve been one of a million reasons why he went off road, good or bad. RIP.

MMARSH 09-18-2022 04:07 AM

I rode it today. I'll ride it again next week. If I stopped riding or driving where people made mistakes, crashed and died, I wouldn't leave the garage. Taking ACH used to be part of my weekly commute. Was wondering how long before this was posted. RIP

Sad. Glad I prefer old slow cars. All the fun happens at 45mph in my old 911. Not that you can’t crash at lower speed but I never feel the need to really push my car in order to have fun….I’m assuming he was pushing it but I don’t know
