On the heels of the tragic car accident that killed “The Fast and the Furious” star Paul Walker Saturday, thousands of the actor’s fans took to the streets to honor him by staging the largest ever simultaneous illegal street race last night, which resulted in 856 fatalities nationwide. According to Cyril Ridley, a 20 year-old who crashed his souped-up 1992 Honda station wagon into a group of pedestrians during the race, he now believes donating money to the Typhoon victims in the Philippines, which Walker helped raise money for hours before his accident, may have been a better way to honor the late actor.

“The worst part of it all was the fact that I was winning the race, too,” Ridley told Hollywood & Swine. “Then I got distracted stressing out about how James Wan was going to be able to finish ‘Fast and the Furious 7’ in time for its summer release schedule.”

Universal, the studio behind the billion dollar “Fast and Furious” franchise reached out to fans, explaining to them that the best way to honor Walker was by buying multiple copies of “Fast and Furious 6” which coincidentally was released on DVD and Blu-Ray this week. Universal also urged Academy voters that the best way they could honor Walker was by voting for the studio’s racing drama “Rush” once Oscar ballots are mailed out.

However, some of Walker’s millions of fans have decided to pay tribute to one of Hollywood’s most likeable actors in different ways. 17-year-old Ned Austin, who isn’t a fan of the “Fast of the Furious” franchise, but has seen Walker’s 1999 comedy, “She’s All That” sixty-seven times, revealed how he’ll honor the actor.

“This spring, I’ll honor Paul’s memory by betting my friend he can’t make the most unpopular girl in our school prom queen,” Austin said.
