I agree that it wasn't unlucky, more like asking for it. Lost control, only witnesses knows how fast these guys were speeding at.

Lucky that the other Evo and the Waja driver is okay. and also for the rear passengers in the blue evo. Unlucky for the front passenger but not for the driver. Ferrying passengers shouldn't even be racing or even overspeeding.

Life of others is in the driver's hands.
You can more or less know what speed to be able to smash the car into pieces.

Exactly, when have passenger in the car whether family or friends should not drive fast.

With big power, comes big responsibility.
How the car handles might be affected because of the extra weight from the passengers on board. Perhaps that could be the cause of the lost control...

BTW, if the rumored 490whp is true, this means this Evo had like maybe 500+ hp on engine alone. That's more than a stock R35. Stock R35 is already fast enough but this Evo had more power and lighter weight than R35. It must be really fast.

With big power, comes big rollcage, at least.
People only fit roll cage when they go track the car, they thought it is safe on normal road....:banghead:

Quite true la on normal road. But he has so much power, only normal body. Supercars also with cf monocoque dy.

Heard this story before from you once. Car too hard to control? How about if he fit 295 width tyres into his car like those Japanese time attack track car? I got those info from Option magazine. Most of these track cars are using 295 tyres.

Before this turns into a-NST-reporter-bashing-because-he's-an-insensitive-prick thread, I'm gonna solex it if no one has anymore condolences to pass onto the people who knew the EVO driver.

Izso agree with you bro

So many Investigation Officer and race car specialist commenting here...and with some ridiculous stupid comment....when Paul Walker died in the accident these specialist didnt comment like they do in here...they know how to express condolence but when this poor guy crashed..out of sudden they become so critical..so hypocrite...although paul walker was not racing, his friend was speeding like hell on public road...so whats the differece?

Come on guys...its an accident..the late driver already received the consequence bynhis action...shut up if you dont have any good words!

Sick with this kind of people!

Sincerely
Evo Driver

If practice so far is anything to go by, the high tyre degradation being experienced at Sepang by the Formula one teams will turn this Sunday’s Malaysian Grand Prix into a highly tactical affair that will see the best strategy to conserve tyres bring about a victor.

The high track temperatures and abrasive surface of the Sepang International...
