> Its stupid on their part that they sold the car to him without release from any potential liability if he crashes the car or injures himself and others, like in this case.

It boggles me that anyone would have any expectation that the seller of a high performance car would be liable for the driver crashing it. It’s not like they didn’t know it was a beast of a car. What happened to personal responsibility?

We live in a world of "terms of conditions" and "disclosures" and "terms of use".

Even this simple purely informational use only website HN has a 10 pages list of "terms & conditions": https://www.ycombinator.com/legal/

Any performance car builder should have one too.
