    We are lucky. He just killed himself. Imagine if that post wasn't there and he mowed down a couple of families waiting for a taxi.

    I knew the person that died. It's unfortunate ...however... I'm thankful no one else was injured.

    120 on Scottsdale Rd at 6:30 on a Saturday night? Seriously? I am no stranger to fracturing a few speed limits, but there is a time and a place.

    + a 21 year old driver - what could go wrong?

    I hope it was his, and not his father’s, I wouldn’t want that decision on my conscience.

    sad event.

    Yea, that is not the place nor the time. It just brings more scrutiny on the rest of us! Sad for the family.

    Aside, why don't people TRAIN their kids to drive these cars before letting them loose? My now 16 y/o has been driving stick for a year. About to graduate to the Ferrari. I told him he will do clinic and track school before he gets ANY sports cars to himself. Just careless. Like giving an AK to someone who has never shot a gun. Giving Everclear to someone that has never had a sip of drink. I could go on and on....

    You know what's crazy...

    The kid actually had been to a few performance driving schools and did track time.

    It was hard for me to believe too because that is what taught me not to do "that"

    Sometimes it can give false confidence.

    Sometimes we take a chance and do something dumb and we get away with it. Sometimes we don't. He didn't and THANKFULLY no one else was injured.
