2 people died, the driver was a popular member on 6speedonline and knows Porsches inside and out. He was well liked by many on ferrarichat and rennlist as well. He leaves behind a child and a wife. Man I've talked to the guy through PM's on there, and even though I never had the chance to meet him in person, it still shocks me to see a fellow enthusiast die so tragically. Words can't comprehend further the feelings I have currently.

It's sad in so many ways. I feel sorry for the guy's family. You can replace a car, not a life.

At least he was driving a Carrera GT, instead of laying in a hospital bed not remembering his name.

Edit: Just read that he died in the fire. I don't know what to say anymore. I guess that just plain sucks.
