Dude. If you're going to go over 100mph, wear something more than a speedo.

I've never hit triple digits. Certainly not on a public road. And definitely not tonight. I do say "Bro" a lot though.

Better than "Bra," which is in fact Hawaiian for "Douche."

Isn't that "Adora Bull" the one who penned the vitriolic column after Walker died, claiming she was glad?

I have....A LOT..... Just last week quickly got up to 120 on my k1200s. That bike is just a few seconds away from it once your already cruising at highway speeds. I honestly think a lot of people preaching about "keeping it on the track" are being hypocritical, but if not, we'll good for you, you're obviously better than the rest of us.

I was a Walker fan, but ^this^ pisses me off.

Fuel cell?? "Crash cage"?? In a street driver??

I think Walker's daughter should be suing Roda's estate for negligence, or even homicide. 90 mph in a 45 zone is obscene.

And the moron who put the Ghetto Special tire setup on the thing will get away scot-free. Also wasn't her husband the guy hooning the car?

If dying in a street hooning accident isn't enough to make a racer spin in his grave, this'll do the trick.

In reply to GameboyRMH:

Roger Rodas was a Porsche GT3 Cup race driver.

Yes, it was him "hooning".

This. She's looking for someone to blame so she doesn't have to blame her husband for doing something stupid.

I feel for her but this reeks of deflection and an ambulance chaser convincing her to sue. The media coverage convicting Porsche didn't help though.

I'm not even convinced it was a 45 zone.

There are pictures from the site that clearly show a 15 mph speed limit sign (they were entering a slow corner).

This is how it works in our country. She sues Porsche. Porsche does not lose, but they will settle, and she cashes in. Financially, this a far better outcome for her than it would have been if he had died in a racing accident.
