OT: Remember journalist killed testing modified Benz?

[puppypilgrim]

I'm trying to recall and need some help. There was an automotive journalist who was killed testing a modified Mercedes Benz (Rennspeed?) at a high speed circuit a few years ago. Anyone remember the name or incident?

I know who you mean and I can't think of his name. :(
he was a Car and Driver editior.
caranddriver.com has forums, try posting there.
