Crash kills two at California Speedway

Not sure if anyone posted yet. I know a lot of you guys are from Cali and may have heard about it, but here is the story.

Driver had a wife and a kid too.
Kinda scary and made me think for a minute.

Very sad indeed. I wonder how experienced he was at track time. Regardless of what car you're in, and we all know the power and performance of that $1 million + car, it takes practice and a certain sense to handle what a track throws at you....especially at 100+ mph. I'll pray for thier families.

Racing is dangerous..but looking at the actual wreckage they most likely died from the wiplash of the impact
