I don't think anyone is hating on him owning the car, it kicks ass. The driver, OTOH, was being a tool.

FTFY

I don't have a dog in this fight - have never even met the owner - but people should remember there are always two sides to every story, especially in situations like this.

Just because one angle of the story has been published doesn't increase its credibility. Jalopnik's style of journalism isn't the type I typically look to for facts - quite the contrary really.

Sure, I'll get the gas and we'll roast him. The account at the track, from the people there, is that he cut off and turned in on the other car. If that isn't the case, then I apologize, but the damage to the MP4 appears to bear this out.

Absolutely.

Sometimes on the track, situations happen in which no one has control over... I'm just glad I'm not reading headlines that say "Today a fatal Macca..." blah blah.
