I friend of mine called me the day after it happened. His co-worker's son was in the passenger seat.
This is all second hand information so I apologize in advance if any of this is wrong.
From what I was told, it was a white Superformance that the guy bought from the estate of someone who recently passed away. The new owner is in his mid 40's
Apparently according to the passenger's dad, they were travelling at 100mph+ on Hwy 13 southbound between Lincoln and Redwood road and hit some bumps and lost it. The car ended up rolling down the embankment. The fire department had to pry them out of the car. The car had dual rollbars.
The passenger had some broken ribs and maybe an arm. The driver got scalped a little bit but I don't know anything more on him.
I believe the car is toast.
Looks like our insurance rates will be going up some more.
