I saw the local news of a man who drove his Porsche off the road on the V.C. Truck Route this weekend. I don't know any specifics. But my mind is running wild of all the things I think he could have done. So I guess I need to know more first. Ryan ( Coco Bear ) Was up there with his Corvette. I'll ask him first. Maybe he knows something the news didn't say. I like Ryan's versions they have more truth than bull.

VIRGINA CITY, Nev. (AP) - A 37-year-old race car driver from Las Vegas was killed when his Porsche slid off a curvy, mountain highway in Nevada that had been closed to traffic for a sanctioned speed race near the historic mining town of Virginia City.

Alexander Djordjevic (JOHR'-juke) died Saturday afternoon while
competing in the Speed by Spectre 341 Challenge.

State trooper Chuck Allen says Djordjevic was wearing a seat belt and helmet. But he says the silver 2001 Porsche 911 Turbo was traveling at an "extremely high rate of speed" before it rolled down an embankment off state Highway 341 southeast of Reno.

The sponsor, Spectre Performance, had billed the race as pitting "the world's fastest street cars against the clock in a full throttle blast up a mountain road."

An investigation continues.

No need to create a mystery just to try to solve it.  
He failed to keep his car on the roadway and he died.

When Enough people have lots bad things to say, there's gotta be some truth to the message.
The video of him driving around Beverly Hills shows him to be complete tool.

Either way,
Sorry he died, sorry for his family.

Yeah that really sucks. I couldn't see a roll bar in his car on the news. Justino said that Dustin was there and he did have a Roll bar.

Weird thing. I also heard he had ask Ryan ( Coco Bear ) to take that run with him. He declined :o

I didn't say any such thing.

I don't know anything of where Dustin was, or what he saw.

I'm sorry Justin. I thought at the bar it was you who said that. Maybe I was wrong. Anyway just for some knowledge I thought is was you. No problem.  ;)

Not 'Maybe'
Perhaps you're thinking of Andrei.  
Just don't like being involved in 'rumors' especially when I don't know any ;)

Andrei is probably the one, the guy apparently ask Ryan and his family first then some other people that were there. I guess no one felt like going. I would have jumped at the chance of going fast on a Porsche.
