i was just about to start a thread on this...its a very sad story!

 

apparently a (yellow?) porsche is involved. that 430 looks like an scuderia too.

take it easy out there guys...

 

Owner of the Porsche is in custody and $1M bail.

 

It looked like a 360 on local channel 5. Porsche driver arrested in Costa Mesa

 

read the article damnt ...its a 599 GTB

 

Do you always believe what you read? Watch the news. Live pictures..http://www.ktla.com/news

 

i stand corrected, my apologies ....im posting via blackberry so i cant see the photos all that great. thanx for the clarification and correction

 

No problem. I had read the L.A. Times article and then saw the live photos on Channel 5. Apology Accepted.

 

thanks 996... btw the porsche is white not yellow... i hope it's not someone from here, or better yet, someone we know.

Looks like the owner of the Ferrari 360 Stradale was "Mask," one of the owners of the clothing company "Tapout". He unfortunately died in the accident.

Its unfortunate that racing was the cause, but regardless, RIP to him.

 

I hate reading post like this... its like the accident in Miami last month. Just so sad.
