20 years ago a 3-400hp car was a “fast car” these cars with 700+ hp are insanely fast. The amount of acceleration and grip the 296 has is mind blowing. First time in 296 to me was like the first time you ride a super bike like an R1 or hayabusa. Someone explaining it doesn’t prepare you for it.

I've done my fair share of dumb shite in cars over the years, but as I've gotten older, I've come to realize I can only be trusted on a track with fast cars.

90% or more of people are not capable of driving any powerful car anywhere close to its capability.

They think they are, till shite happens.

I mean I’m not defending this guys dumbass driving but he’s wasnt a dweeb in his mom’s basement. He basically invented modern multiplayer gaming and was worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

I think he got off the road a bit into some gravel and lost all traction

That sound of the car hitting the concrete is terrifying.

He did kill an innocent person. Thanks to survival of the fittest, the gene pool is cleaner today and he won’t be able to kill anyone else. May God have mercy on his soul.

Couldn't he just go back to his last save point?

My guess is that's not the first time someone crashed like that in that spot.
