Hours after the fiery car crash that killed Paul Walker, the 40-year-old star of the Fast and Furious movie franchise, and another man, details from eye witnesses and police have emerged to show that the accident occurred during a charity car show that went horribly wrong.

"We were collecting toys for the Indiana tornado victims and the Philippine [typhoon] victims," says Jim Torp, who attended the event held by Always Evolving, a Valencia, Calif.-based automotive company. "There were dozens of high-end race cars and custom-built cars on display."

As the car show was winding down, Walker, whose 15-year-old daughter Meadow Rain also was at the event, got into a red 2005 Porsche Carrera GT with the car's driver, Always Evolving owner Roger Rodas.

"Roger was definitely behind the wheel," says Torp, a Santa Clarita, Calif., electrician who was an acquaintance of Rodas. "Roger slowly drove it out – he didn't take off recklessly. There were children around, after all. They were only gone for five or ten minutes and never came back."

Was Speed a Factor?

"The crash happened right behind the Always Evolving warehouse, just one street over in a commercial area," Torp says.

"Suddenly I heard a loud bang in the distance," he continues. "There was billowing black smoke in the distance. When I saw that, I felt in my heart that something was tragically wrong."

While a Los Angeles County sheriff's statement said that "speed was a factor" in the accident, another official would not say so definitively.

hate to burst your bubble but I never heard of him before this like most people Id say too

I could agree with that, if you wer'nt a fan of the Fast and Furious films maybe not.

[screwloose]

Thw Walker family are to sue Porsche for tens of millions...
They are claiming it had a technical fault as the same model claimed the lives of 2 people in 2005....(nothing to to with driving it at 180kph and losing control then)
