Re: 1994 supra wrecked racing last night
It's sad how the media can't just report what really happens. It was a Supra...now c'mon, he was out by himself on the highway with no-one around and thought "I think I'll open her up a little" A deer probably jumped out in front of him, and he hit the guard rail instead. Thoughts go out to the family though. Glad nobody else was riding w/ him.

NORFOLK — A driver who police say appeared to be racing another car on Interstate 64 early today was killed when his car hit a guard rail and flipped over.
Martinez Castro, 39, of Hampton, was in a 1994 Toyota Supra headed west in the area of 4th View Street at 12:25 a.m. A witness told police he appeared to be racing a white car, said state police Sgt. D.S. Carr. He lost control of his car, struck a guardrail on the right, overturned, and was thrown 100 feet from the point of impact, said state Carr.
The other car did not stop. No further description of it was available.
Castro was not wearing a seatbelt, and died at the scene, Carr said

This was my buddies car,Pedro was just doing some body work to the car,He was a real cool guy,Its a cryin shame this had to happen. He had just fixed another 97 sup that came from a insurnace auc.Did a great job. When ya have the targa off,there should be no question as to wearing your seat belt. condolences to his family.
Maybe you guys can help me out here,the car only had liability on it,Im pretty sure if your car is drivin by someone else and totaled that the person who was driving the car,has thier insurance pay for the car? In a death case I guess you have to handle it little diffrently?
