i must have misread when i saw this last night. i thought it was the driver of the one who was racing who was killed. no one should have to pay with their life because of someone else's wrong decision. they shouldnt even be involved. really sad...

The two fing problems "A 21-year-old BMW driver" and "said he had been driving under the influence of alcohol."
Damn kids and their parents when are they going to learn!!

i think age is one half of the problem. maturity is the other half. i'm 23 and i had an a4 1.8t when i was 18 and i bought my s2k when i was 22. everyone acts stupid when they're young, but that part of my life didn't last very long. glad i had parents that kept me in check from the get go.
some people just need to put their ego in check and quit acting like they own the world. i hope the guy gets one heck of a hefty penalty.
last week i saw a suburban flip 3 times about 600 feet in front of me before landing on it's driver side with all the windows blown out. guy said he lost control but who knows what really happened. he's lucky he was the only one in the car and the only other vehicle involved was a durango with a damaged rear passenger panel.
