Look at the pic, the entire front half of his car is destroyed, and it practically sitting in the cabin with him. He was also JZ swapped, running boost. Again, no one can say for sure just exactly what caused him to crash b/c he was alone with other NELOC members running in front and behind him at a good distance apart. The road is full of S turns and bends, so it is very easy to be lost from sight from a group. Between the force of the impact shattering possible gas lines up front, the car still running at the time of impact, so sparks were gonna fly, and of course electriacal live wires being severed,, the car was gonna burn. This accident happened in a very remote area, so by the time the fire dept was able to reach him, the car had burned for close to 15 minutes, and now there is little to nothing left of it.

+1 he speaks the truth! i myself went for a ride in a friends car to do a run, and boy the corner before where Todd crashed, u HAD to brake because it was sort of a mini hill and there was always a hazard of someone else driving on the other side. here is a pic of where he crashed from a different angle, excuse the lights because it was one of the only big shots i could find. the red circle was the point of impact and u can see how dangerous this curve was and the fall down.
