I heard about this, we were heading to the city that day. Don't know how fast they were going but mid engine cars can spin even at 25 with the weight in the back if they nail the throttle and don't respect the car. I'm not defending them, I'm 26 myself. But anyone with some common sense would treat high powered cars like that with respect no matter whether they'll do anything bad or not. As for the wreck, if there was no speeding involved, I have to say its a case of wrong place at the wrong time. My dad was involved in a similar style wreck at lower speeds. This sounds like a similar scenario. First instinct when someone wipes out is to get on the brakes or avoid no matter what it takes. You see this at the tracks too and even then its not always successful. I think this is hitting headlines because it was a bike fatality. Don't care what it is, bikes on cars rarely end well.
