    The current Porsche Post mag notes two men in a Carrera GT died at a Ferrari Club track day in California--hitting a wall at over 100mph when avoiding a car entering the track from the pits. There was no flagman.

    Does anyone have more details on this tragic event?

    There was a lengthy thread on this a few weeks ago. The owner of the CGT was registered here.
