Very sad to hear of this. As Walter mentioned in the previous post, Heaven is a better place now.
My prayers go out to all the friends and family.
Brooks once tossed me the keys to his Ford GT, said..."go have fun kid". Didn't take that opportunity but hope to have a ride along if I make it...."have fun kid!" Godspeed!

FYI, the memorial party and celebration in Ben Wheeler is going to be held Sunday, February 9th instead of the 16th. The party begins around noon. There will be local bands and it would be awesome to have as many bikes as possible show up. Maybe someone could organize a group ride from Dallas, Houston, Austin, etc.

Nancy,
For the members that cannot attend Ben Wheeler, it would be great if we could do a little something to memorialize at the first race as well.
