I think he rear-ended a truck at high speed.

Re: Lotus Elise Crash

You can find out a bit more if you read the Elise Talk thread. His name is Jack Griffith. Truly sad.

Luckily, both of them were driving larger vehicles than the Elise.

Re: Lotus Elise Crash

OMG, this is awful, the little Lotus is impressively quick and also unsafe. It's a tin can on the wheels. True over a 100 not that many cars have a chance of saving the drivers life but Lotus has no chance at all
