In regards to that crash, I believe I read that the tires were to blame. Not that the tires were bald, but as they aged, (over 6 years or so) they did not have the gripping power that they once had. I believe that car was bought from a collector who rarely used it, hence the tires being unworn. However, age does set in, the tires don't grip, and this is what I believe I read contributed to the crash of Walker and Rodas.
