Default 20 year old dead due to racing

this happened two days ago, the guy used to go to the SFV car meets and im sure some people have seen him there, he owned a red s.r.t 4. on his way back on the 210 freeway the police are not sure if he was racing or not but he was traveling excess of 100mph, he ended up loosing control and he flipped multiple times and got ejected out the window and died instantly. i have meet the guy and seen him in person, its really sad how something like this could have been avoided so easily. may he rest in peace and god bless his family. here are some pictures taken when i went to the impound lot

yes let him rest in peace, this is the kind of thing that i hear all the time. i lost a friend some time back, to the same ****. just going to fast, he had the nice 99 camaro, loved the car and loved the speed, we would **** around alot on this ramp by the house(60east-710north) we would take the ramp like 70mph, that was the fastest i took it, but on night he was on his way home, and at 3am. i get the phone call. CHP said he was going over 120mph, and flipped the car. we should all take at least, think about it first before slamming the gas to the floor.... take a moment and remember the ones we lost....

Just when you think that it will never happen to you it does.

I feel very bad for his family.

+1 on wearing your seat belt.
Definitely helped me to not even get scratched in my accident.

My condolences, hope his family can manage through this. 20 is just too damn young to go, **** he was my age. A seatbelt saved my life once already, although I ended up on crutches for a while. May he rest in peace....
