So tragic. I feel sad for both families.

Previous owner of car in Paul Walker crash was IndyCar driver Graham Rahal

"I get bored with cars pretty quickly," he said in a story published earlier this year. "The Carrera GT is just harder to drive, and I drive my cars a lot. Nothing that I have will not be used. Every car that I have will be driven a lot. I have two cars that are old that don't get used that often, but that is rare."

Rahal compared the Carrera GT to a 2010 Ferrari 599 GTO. Some of his observations and his descriptions of how difficult the Carrera was to drive are chilling in light of the crash.

from another article I read on this car surprised me that this car only had 3,200+ miles on it and he was the 6th owner..
