I'm going crazy here. I'm trying to deal with this but it is very hard.

SoCal Crew, I will post a thread for a vigil shortly (Saturday morning). I've always rallied the troops to support Ben and the San Diego crew...we must do so now. Please stand by.

This is the sadest day I have ever experienced since being associated with these cars and forums. I hope his wife wasn't the passenger. That would leave a newborn parentless. So tragic. If this is true, we all should put together a memorial fund for the child....

according to the Pelican Parts link his wife was at home. The passenger was a prospective CGT buyer. This is shockingly sad. Don't know what to say.

Guys:

Channel 4 news just confirmed that two people were killed today at the California Speedway when the car hit the wall. I saw pictures of the crashed GT and I almost lost it. I am so sorry. I feel so bad for his wife and child.

I don't know what to say.

I'll post a vigil thread shortly.
