Keep his spirit alive and get that time attack car on road brother

    Paul Walker would still be here today if Roger was more concerned about the maintenance of that Porsche. Reports found that he knew that it was running on old tires that needed to be replaced asap and along with driving on a regular road that had dirt, dust and small rocks in the area of the fatal crash. I was very saddened to hear about his untimely demise, however l'm not here to complain. I just feel saddened knowing that information could've prevented this. Alex I always appreciate your videos especially these types of behind the scenes stuff. You are very talented and I look up to as a long auto enthusiast and I definitely can't wait to see what you come out with next. Keep on Keeping On!
