Roda's son and Walker's best friend were trying to pull him out of the wreckage. :(

I'm hearing a lot of assumptions about driver error. There could have been a mechanical malfunction. I'm not saying it's likely, just saying it's possible.
So sad for his child, and any other family of either of these guys.

Considering its not a clapped out three decade old e30, combined with the fact that the car is notorious for being a tryhard death trap, I'd say driver error is a pretty safe assumption.

filled with flammable liquid and made with flammable composites.

Modern exotics are juts as much of a death trap as past exotics. Despite rising safety standards and gear.

rip in peace

Roger Rodas was obviously a dangerous driver on the streets and willing to take chances. No matter how much racing experience he had. Such a sad mistake for sure.

Holy shit. They were probably dead before the fire, but for fuck's sake the LSB M3 bitches just sitting there filming it is pretty fucking grim. I would have at least run over and seen if I could pull them out before the whole car was engulfed.

Definitely a shame, but still... NO reason at all to fuck around on the street. I'm guilty of the occasional pull on the highway, or maybe stepping it up a little on a twisty back road, but talking maybe 6/10ths, and the limits of anything I'm driving are a fraction of what that Carrera GT was capable of.

RIP.

What a terrible accident..... Really shouldn't of happened, the driver took another persons life with his irresponsible driving.....


Terrible.

Man... I always wondered when the first actors/actresses I actually had attachments to would pass away... I guess today is one of those days...

He seemed like a cool guy, sucks to go out like that even more so when you're a passenger.

Did he ignore the 'Danger to Manifold' warning?

Too soon, junior.

Update: The driver was the CEO of AE (Always Evolving), one of Paul Walkers companies. I have been watching this place for years.

Damn shame.

RIP Paul Walker and Roger Rodas.

Looks like they drank their own cool aid. Watched one of the f&f movies and decided, lets take the Porsche for spin and lost the touch with reality
