I feel like I grew up on these movies, fueling my passion for the car scene, sad for the loss as his character could be considered iconic in my generation of car guys.

I'll be "burning some" later today in honor of Brian O'Conner. Godspeed, Mr. Walker.
Burning some, meaning smokin' the tires a bit. A fitting send off, I think.

Not sure how fitting that is considering that is precisely what Paul and his friend were doing that got them killed. Police say there are obvious signs that they were doing doughnuts and burnouts just before the crash.

Looking at the photos, there's a pole sticking out of where the passenger seat would be. If he wasn't driving, as as been alluded to previously, I doubt he was alive by the time the car caught fire. I know cars aren't the steel tanks of yesteryear, but you've got to be going really fast in the wrong kind of ways to end up making a car look like an Indy car that just hit the wall.
