    Default Paul Walker Dies at 40

    Sad day. He had a huge impact on me. He was always giving back until the very end. Thank you for the inspiration, thank you for the years of entertainment, and thank you for being such an icon.

    I rarely watch TV news anymore. For anything worth knowing someone usually makes some comment about it on Facebook.

    As far as Paul Walker, it's sad to see him go. I know some people think the Fast and Furious series has been over done, but not only was Walker an actor, it seems he was also a true car enthusiast. I guess he went out doing what he loved, riding in a Porsche.

    This happened about 40 miles from me. Crazy to see people paying on Fb that actually knew them. Roger Rodas more than Paul Walker though...

    WOW I was a senior in high school when the first one came out and yes I went to the theater to see the movie and at the end when every high school kid left the theater parking lot they were burning out leaving tire marks everywhere . I was trying to act mature because I had my girlfriend with me but in reality I had a 89 or 90 ford tempo that had no chance in hell on spinning the tires lol. Pual Walker might not have started the hole ricer 4 banger phase but he def helped kicked it off in my home town. RIP Paul Walker

    RIP to both of those killed... Liked his movies and he seemed a very decent human being.... I wonder how fast they were doing to take out a lamp post and hit that tree. From the pics, looks like the car was cut in two.... Thank God no other cars were involved...
