We suffered a tragic loss at what I can only call lack of respect for speed on a public highway… at this point only God knows what really happened but I just want to show this to remind folks here to take it easy on the street (I know I have been guilty in the past of ridiculous speeds on public highways so not throwing any stones here… but something I stopped doing more than 6 years ago)… leave the high speeds for the track.

We lost a dear friend (cousin of a very close friend)… Pedro Aguirre lost his life Thursday night/Friday morning at a tragic accident. He leaves behind his wife and two lovely daughters that will miss him dearly.

RIP Pedro.

Tragic! Was he driving alone?

Wachuko

Yes. He smashed into the guard rail...


PS - Before some one else points it out... this is not a GT3 but a GT3 look alike... just felt that it was a reminder to keep safe on the roads...

Wachuko, where did this happen? I noticed you're in Orlando, but we had a very similar accident a week ago in PR.

Sorry for your loss. Looks like a cooler in the boot. Hope it was not alcohol related.

That and the fact it was "Thursday night/Friday morning" had me wondering the same thing. If so, I think that (alcohol) rather than speed was the cause of this tragedy. And if it was, thank God he didn't have his family with him or take out someone elses.
