[edit] Death
Before beginning his business career, Rudl was a motocross driver, winning a 2002 Vancouver Molson Indy sports car event.
On June 2nd, 2005, Rudl rode in a 2005 Porsche Carrera GT driven by Benjamin Miles Keaton, on a San Bernardino county track that was also being used by a local Ferrari sports club. When Keaton tried to avoid a queued car, the Porsche went out of control, left the inside track and careered onto the grass, hit a barrier at an estimated speed of 100mph and caught fire at 10:40 a.m. Rudl was the passenger and died at the scene. The driver, Benjamin Miles Keaton, 39, was airlifted to Loma Linda University Hospital, where he died about an hour later. Both men were not burned but died of crash injuries, even though both were wearing helmets and safety belts.[1]
