I read the thread on Moparts about this (locked by the time I got to it) AND ,,of course, the typical finger pointing blame game... Honestly I feel It is a great tragedy all the way around. It WILL effect Nearly all events from here on out, This WAS being done for a car-related CHARITABLE contribution. My hat goes off to the promoters, and those Involved.
As far as responsibility, accountability,,, EVERYBODY WAS THERE OF THEIR OWN FREE WILL!!! This event is FAR from new.. All that attended knew what they were attending.
Sad part is NOBODY ever thought of an ACCIDENT.
If I were a Judge that is going to oversee the multitude of lawsuits stemming from this event, I would rule "NO FAULT".....EVERYBODY WAS TO BLAME.
p.s. The driver, his team, the event planners will live a lifetime of this event played thru their minds over and over again....Hell while on earth...
