Post Bad accident with P car

Anyone here any details of an accident in Quebec today. Apperently a Porsche blew a tire at 200k and hit a pole somewhere north of Montreal. Three fatalities. Hope it wasn't anyone from this board.

man was obviously wealthy and probably lived fully and spent his money on the coolest things in life, a tragic end to make us all stop and think about just how frail we really are. slow down and enjoy the ride, there is much more pleasure sometimes in just cruising slow while looking at all the yo yo's around you in a rush to go nowhere.

that's why i race around here from 0 to 40...you know ricers don't have a chance off the line like that, even if they have 180HP (yay!) but 139 ft/lbs of torque. I'm off...at 40 I wave and the race is over.

Kurt - I'm with ya man! 0-60 is my comfort zone. Got a family depending on me coming back home.

Slow down! Speed kills!
