Paul Walker died because the guy driving it was being an idiot.

However, the idiot driving was a race car driver to some extent so Coop wasn't wrong.

I mean he was a race car driver like Paul Walker was a race car driver. His primary job was a wealth management director for Bank of America/Merrill Lynch. Sure he had raced in some pro-am races, but it's not like he was a full time race car driver...
Plus he was doing between 80 and 95 in a 45mph zone, in a spot know for drifting, in a car with old tires; which even if still good were probably not warmed up etc. since they just left an event. He was being stupid (like we have all done at some point in a car I'm sure), and unfortunately for everyone, it ended badly.

Understand, but all I was saying is you can have all the experience in the world, but if you're acting like an idiot, it's gonna catch up with you at some point.

True. There are massive amounts of people who say that car has a lot of understeer if I remember correctly.
