R.I.P Paul Walker

Post by wrekka » Sun Dec 01, 2013 6:16 pm

Very sad to hear the death of "Fast and Furious" film's Paul Walker (Brian in the films). He was a passenger in a Carrera GT which crashed into a lamp post and burst into flames. Really hits home that no matter how much we love our fast motors- you just never know.

Nice tribute video

Those cars have real nasty reputation for their tricky nature

RIP to both Paul and Roger.

Running Scared is an excellent film, not well known, with Paul Walker playing the lead.

+1 for Running Scared. Checked if the shitty netflix had it so I could watch it again and it doesn't :thumbsdown:
