This thread isn't going at all like I expected. Usually when some dude dies operating expensive machinery, they are talked about like some kind of god-hero. That B-17/P-63 interface (surprised the Nat'l flags weren't lowered in their honor), that aeromed Lear (IIRC one member got banned because he corrected a pilot on the proper definition of an explosion), etc.

so, skimming through this I see at 2:27 and roughly 4:17 you see close ups of the tire on the back half that is in the ditch.  It appears that is was flat spotted and doesn't look like much tread to begin with, but I am not expert on the exotic car tires... was the driver under that yellow thing covered with debris to keep him covered?

From the outside looking in…both the Tesla and the deceased are assholes.  

I would love to see what actually happened.  We’re they already at 100 mph when the Tesla started to overtake?  Did the Tesla try to pass too late and then pitted the old guy and sent him into oncoming traffic. Did the old guy just plain have a car that passed up his performance behind the wheel.  

Highly doubt anyone but the Tesla will know…unless a few dash cams happened to catch it.  From the looks of it he was well over 100 and then played pin ball between other cars and the sides of the road.

“Ferrari crash”, eh?

I recall someone bitching on a Porsche forum about if you happen to crash with a particular brand car the headlines highlight the car brand.  Thus if this guy was driving a honda accord this wouldn’t even make the news.

Just as a boxer ages and retires due to loss of hand eye coordination and reaction time the same goes for everyone else.  Its better off to leave high performance equipment to those with the reaction times that can handle it.  I'm also a firm believer that driving tests should be readministered at 70 then again at 80 and 90.

It was dry so age would be a much larger factor than tread depth. Also Michelin Pilot Super Sports are only 6/32s new and not grippy below 40 degrees or so.
