What makes this so German is the fact how we are handling this. If the train is 5 minutes late in Germany, we are all busy talking about how the train is late. In a lot of countries nobody would even care about 5 minutes. If there is a meeting in Germany and you are not there before the appointed time so the meeting starts at the appointed time, you are late. In some other countries you would not really consider coming before the appointed time.

[@epincion]

Having recently lived in Switzerland for 2 months and commuting daily in and out of Zurich I must say that Swiss trains/trams genuinely are on time. The clocks in the stations start counting the negative seconds and then minutes if the train is late and in the trams where you can see the drivers dash the large digital clock turns red when the tram is running behind. Great place.

[@DimitarStanev]

+MoabMan There is a limit to how stiff you can make the car to be. Especially for a side crash where there isn't much crumple zone at all. Even if they make it extremely tough then people would die at low-speed crashes because of the brutal acceleration. That's why cars have crumple zones. If you want to crash at high speed, then you put a roll cage.

[@hakankarakurt1100]

Dude if you know a little bit of physics, no safety measure can save you after 60mph crashing a huge tree. Moreover, supercars need to be light to give the performance. The engineers kill themselves for saving a gram or two but you say that they should put all the heavy stuff for safety...

[@moabman6803]

+Hakan Karakurt Indy cars, NASCAR's, etc. they crash all the time at high speeds and the driver walks away. yea it adds weight, but what's more important? a little faster 0-60 time? or safety?

[@hakankarakurt1100]

They have cages dude, you are right. And they are driven in an controlled environment where tires etc. used to slow the crashes down. These cars(NASCAR etc) don't have stereos screens anything etc. . So I also think you are right safety is important and I was really sad about Paul but you know if you really don't want to risk your life don't drive like a racer in a road made for transportation. Go to a track or something. Yes I love F&F like movies and the way they drive in the streets but it's no good in real life. If you happen to kill someone in an accident it's unbearable and if you die it's the end of story.

[@rx787]

So this has become the new Steve Irwin stingray. Fan boys hating on something because it led to someone's death? So now idiots will hate this car because it led to Walker's death? Do you hate NASCAR vehicles after Earnhardt died? Such a silly lemming mentality to have. He is dead. Let it go.

Probably one of the fewest Porsches that wasn't reviewed by Hammond

[@ThungStudios]

I drive an MR2, and lift-off oversteer is truly terrifying... and I've only got a tiny Inline 4 behind me. I can't imagine having the weight of a humongous V10 perched in the back. Every time you take a corner, the transfer of weight caused by lifting-off the throttle will turn that monster engine into a freight train of inertia, pulling the car out of the apex and thrusting the car into a ruthless spin of centripetal force. You really have to respect the CGT to drive it.

[@MrRandomcommentguy]

the original tyre supplied with this car made the handling very unpredictable at the limit, but apparently if you fit these with more modern tyres the GT is safer and more predictable. I believe the car Paul Walker was driving was still fitted with the original tyres and those tyres were overdue for replacement. Not Porsche's fault. It was the owner's fault for not maintaining the car properly.

Why is everybody blaming on the Porsche? As Clarkson said you need to be really aware when you drive this beast. Maybe Roger went comfortable thinking he could handle it and don't get me wrong. This would have happened to any other professional driver like Roger. A human mistake that sadly took away Paul and Roger. I still like this rare machine.

[@Katana-xd4li]

Finally someone understands it is not the cars fault it is the drivers faul.roger didnt change the tyres for almost 9years and if you overspeed the car will spin out

Apparently, Rodas (Paul Walker's friend) is the sixth owner of that fateful Carrera GT. That is, since the newly launched in 2005, the red car has changed owners in six times. The fifth, Indy Car racers and collectors car, Graham Rahal. He said, the Carrera GT is a car that is hard to control. "I often drive my cars and it has become a habit. Every car that I have always often used, but for which it is quite rare, and one which I rarely drive, "said Rahal. - - - Autoweek -

Porsche built this car with the intention of being a challenge to the driver, much like the Ferrari F40 and the McLaren F1. Low weight, manual transmissions, a shit ton of power and a lack of electronic driver aids (F40 and the F1 don't even have airbags) made these cars respected and feared. Only a very skilled individual could drive these cars, and there's a chance they'd still mess up, and it makes me extremely sad knowing that's what happened with Paul Walker and Roger Rodas :(

[@jschwind435]

At 4:49 is probably what Roger Rodas did. Lost control because apparently it is not an easy car to control. Especially if you lose all power steering.

[@dodgeskitz87]

I suspect the car slid to the right exiting the right hand turn, hitting the pole ripping the left side of the car while knocking over the pole and rotating the car to the left. Causing it to hit the tree with the right side of car and appearing ripped open on the left.

[@crombie92]

and apparently it was leaking before it crashed could have been steering fluid that drained out on the way to there accident.

IndyCar driver Graham Rahal was the fifth of sixth owners of the Porsche Carrera GT owned by driver Roger Rodas. "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. www.autoweek.com/article/20131201/carnews/131209996#ixzz2mILJCVdy

This is a wonderful car by one of the greatest car manufacturers in the world. Paul Walker could've been killed in any car including this one. Just because Germany has a lot of haters these days it is not a valid reason to blame the Carrera GT nor to incite people on boycotting German cars. When pilots overestimate their driving abilities then people die, and that's exactly what happened. R.I.P. Paul Walker!

[@SlipStreamTV]

Something about it being extremely difficult to drive makes me like this car even more. In an age where cars basically drive themselves this car certainly stands out. Sad it acquired the stigma that it has now but in my opinion we need more cars as RAW as the carrera gt. It makes the driving experience that much rewarding.
