Very sad,

RIP to whom it was.
FYI, a friend of mine was in a very similar accident with low speeds in an early SPF and the car was the only recipient of damage.

His right rear suspension gave way, think it was a bolt in type bracket, thus launching him to the right through a fence and into a tree. I never owned an SPF so I am not good with details.
Not picking on the manufacturer here just a FYI to check all rear suspension components as when they go nothing good comes of it. Think it was an older SPF and the fix was to weld the rear together, not sure if this car pictured was same generation. Not sure if SPF has addressed it?
