There have been other references to the Toyota powered cars. I thought I saw pics of three WSR's there, but you're right.
Perhaps that's how they got 165hp in a Gen1 SR (Sports Renault), Reference to the MR2 engine here: https://www.denverpost.com/2023/07/0...tal-car-crash/
A shame. RIP.

Those things are fairly fast for that power, but not super fast. Surprised he still braked albeit too late, cleared a gravel trap, and still hit a barrier hard enough to die 
. Probably a whole lot of bad luck on top of several worst case scenarios with different things combining to = one horrible crash.

Oh man, I am sorry to hear what happened. I was kind of hoping he had a medical event and was gone before impact, and didn't suffer

It must have been pretty bad to be declared at the scene by non-medical personnel.
