Hey guys VR Alexander was today at Speed channel demostrating how good of a driver he was and his powerful 996tt.He beat a Ford GT Hennesey and a 997tt TechArt car.It was nice to see him at TV.
I didn't know about him until my friend Alex55 explained to me who Alex was and what he represents to the Porsche community.
I can tell by all the condolences written in this section that besides being a great driver and having one of the very first really powerful 996tt he was a very nice person loved by all that were lucky to met and knew him.

I just wanted you guys know he is shining high.

 

I am sorry Alex is not here, but would like to know what happened so I can protect myself. Still no info on what happened or pic's of car? I see that Underground's lambo still had air bags in it. I think a full cage is my next mod with air bags still hooked up!

 

It definitely was a sad day.

Cages are not recommended for street cars. They are dangerous to anyone not wearing a helmet.

Sad day indeed... But some of us really push our cars well passed the limits of what Porsche intended. Plus ten years ago the power some cars on here make would never be considered a "street cars".

 

He was my Source of inspiration and enthusiasm to the way of my interests
RIP

 

Alex was an interesting guy.

I had given him a set of intake cams that he installed in his 996tt prior to the event.

Rip.

 

Thank you. I was told there were CF doors and the car was gutted. No air bags either. Also that the car was down to 2600 lbs. I never would trade my safety for saving some weight.

Very sad story and miss the antics. RIP.

 

rip.

 

RIP to another enthusiast doing what he loved. I didn't know of the accident until I just read it this morning in the monthly mag where they had a driver/car at the event.
