    Accident investigation is a pretty neat thing, they can determine the first harmful incident within a few hours into the investigation. I'm pretty sure by now they know the proximate cause of the accident. I'm sure the details will be released to the public pretty soon considering the high profile of the deceased.

    No amount of fluid on the street, mechanical woes, or other issues will cause a car, any car, to end up like that Porsche ended up....if driving at normal speeds. At the posted 45mph limit that street had, you could drive that car into a concrete wall and live through it.

    That seems unlikely, since they were leaving a car show and had given multiple people rides in the car prior to the crash.

    You're right. They were coming from a show put on by their shop. But the car was acting up which is why they were in it. Rodas saw one of his guys having trouble with it and Walker hopped in and they took it out. I was wrong about it being in the shop for repair, misunderstood it when the wife told me. All of this is based off TMZ reports, so take that for what it's worth.

    ******Tin Foil Hat Alert******

    This was on my Facebook this morning.

    It's just not being blamed on the car now.
