I have read in more than a few accounts from people who were there that he was going between 70 to 100 mph no brakes into the wall which would possibly suggest a medical issue or possible panic situation.

I'll also echo Nathans comments around prep from both GGR PCA as well as POC in California. I felt POC driver ed was better than the professional instruction I recieved from The Russell school. They drilled into new drivers all the basics and rode with us until they felt we were safe. They also put us on skid pad before we were on the track to assure we understood how the car would feel at limit and during a spin.
