unintended acceleration? JK! JK!

I'm glad he went doing what he loved, rather than suffering something slow and painful. Really is sad to see stuff like this happen.

Hi,

This is a terrible piece of news. An absolute institution in the Japanese sports car world.

RIP and thoughts to those personally effected by the crash. Here's hoping the BMW drivers are fine.

Cheers,
Nik

I was shocked to see how damaged the LF-A was compared to the 3 series.

RIP He died driving the car he helped create. Very sad.
