Message	I do think the car's well documented history of being tail happy had something to do with. The driver pushed a 600+ machine way past its limits in an area not meant for driving hard (a public road). Just pointing out their accident probably doesn't happen in the same scenario in a Z32, GTR etc... I've read Jay Leno took one on a road course track in a straight a way and simply got off the gas. Jay Leno losses control at Talledega Widow awarded 4.5 Million in wrongful death suit against Porsche, driver and organizers Watch at 4:00 mins to hear Jeremy talk about the handling: Top Gear Review Video RIP... Horrible way to go.
