From what i read he was a show/track thing and crashed. He was in some kind of 911 turbo i think. Not a lot of info about the accident itself.

Was he the guy behind the Carrera GT video's taken in america, letting it rip through a town and then later on through a tunnel?

Aye, plenty videos on youtube. I think he was a self made rich boy, plenty of nice cars, had his own charity for soldiers, was on loads of forums and offered people a ride in his car, overall a top bloke.

Oh... Ive seen nothing but good things about him. Either way he has made me want to get a CGT with an AWE exhaust.
