Here's an idea for a King of the Mountain trophy.

Set a timing marking at the braking point at the first right hander at the end of Mountain Straight. ie just before they head up through the twisty bits and then set up a timing marker at the exit of the last corner onto Conrod. Fastest time between the 2 points during the race get the KoM trophy.
Never argue with an idiot, it brings you down to their level and they beat you with experience.

Both died doing a) what they loved and b) something that was inherently dangerous.

That said, everything has risks and I'm sure they knew what risks they were taking.

It seems there was nothing wrong with the car, he apparently was sideways one way, then sideways the other. Pushing it to the limits just one time too many.
