RIP. He died doing what he loved to do, and he must have died a happy man.

What would we have everyone over the age of sixty do? Sit around in climate-controlled rooms hooked up to heart monitors and an IV feed line full of tranquilizers? If they want to live, let them.

Marc Sourd is still racing professionally and competitively at the age of 66. He's driving an R8 GT3 this year.
 
Went out doing what he loved, I can only hope the same happens to me.

RIP

I give the man kudos, honestly. It's tragic, but if I had to come up with a list of ways to go out as an older gentleman, I can't think of anything much better.

I agree.

That would be no fun.

Not unless you have naughty nurses...

Then you might have a heart attack, anyway...



Common theme amongst joggers, weirdly.

Lets see, dying at 200mph+ in a Ford GT or while locked up with a bunch of naughty nurses...either way works for me :sly: Sorry for the man and his family, but as others have said, he went out doing something he loved 👍
