MARTIN TOWNSHIP, Mich.-- Racing enthusiasts are mourning the death of 22- year-old Dan Cerio.
Cerio was compering in the Aero-Quip Outlaw Sled Series over the weekend, when his modified snow mobile slammed into not one, but two walls.
Officials said the cause of the crash was due to mechanical failure.
Investigators said the victim was driving at 170 miles-per-hour when he crashed.
