RIP Mark Porter

Don't really know why but this death hit me harder than brocky and Irwin. Maybe its because you see the actual crash. Didn't really follow his career that closely but really feel for his wife (Adrienne), having been left with her son fatherless. A real tragedy. I could not believe Adrienne issued a statement thanking the staff I would have never thought to do that I'm sure the staff did all they could but my heart goes out to her. She must be a remarkably strong woman.

@MiniKirk: Irwin's and Brock's deaths shocked me, but this one actually make me feel sick in the stomach. This death probably affected me more.

Forgive me.
But what exactly happened? I hadn't heard about it.

Porter appeared to be dropping oil, and spun his car at the top of the mountain (2 corners before McPhillamy Park I think).

His car was parked sideways across the track. Chris Alajiajan lost his car and clipped the rear of Porter's car and sheered the rear of his car. David Clark was next on the scene and slid sideways into Porters car.

Porter was believed to have had suffered cardiac arrest, a severed spinal chord, serious head injuries, and numerous fractures. This combined led to his untimely death.

Clark suffered a punctured lung, broken ribs, pelvis, leg and kneecap, and was released from Intensive Care today.
