Clearly, Keaton was not qualified to be driving any car "solo" on the track. The article does not speak to this issue at all. His lack of skill is what killed them and that is sad. Anybody that goes to the track (aside from real pros) to work out a handling problem on a car is not using their head. If the car is an ill handling car on the city streets, what does one expect it to do on the track in full anger. To add a degree of difficulty, he invites someone along (joy riding should be forbidden at such events). I suspect some basic DE rules were ignored here. I am generally no fan of "wrongful death" lawsuits and I do not feel the need to be protected from myself, but Rudi's wife is entitled to explore whether the "assumptions" of the signed waiver were in place on that day.
