LOS ANGELES -- Two people were killed Thursday in a crash at California Speedway in Fontana.
A private car club was renting the speedway at the time of the crash.
A Porsche Carrera GT crashed into a retaining wall and came to rest on the track's infield. Authorities said two people were in the vehicle at the time of the crash.
One person was pronounced dead at the scene.
The second person in the car was transported by Mercy Air to Arrowhead Regional Medical Center. That person later died.
The track is home to the California 500, Nextel Cup 500, the Toyota Indy 400 and other motorsport events. The 2-mile D-shaped oval surrounds an infield portion used for road courses and a 13-turn interior test circuit.
Private parties can rent the track to turn laps.
