I like the stickers. Seems like the second one may work a little better for a vinyl sticker though. Simpler, not so many pieces.


I'd like to pay my respects, does anyone know if/when they are going to either the visitation or the service or both?




His family is trying to keep his car sort-of as his legacy, at least for now. We kicked around the idea of trying to get it up to BIR this weekend and parking it in a safe, central place as a weekend-long memorial for him. If anyone has an extra spot on a trailer or may somehow be able to help us accomplish this, please let me know. The family have a lot on their plate to deal with so the idea of them trying to get it up there is just completely out of the question--but if we can get the resources to make it easy for the family to let us do this then it may just happen.


I think that would be awesome, would make a great memorial. Hopefully someone can make it happen.

I might have the day off. Maybe we could cruise down there with some other evo guys

That's kind of what I had in mind. Or at least meet there and go get a bite to eat and a beer afterwords or something.

Off the top of my head, I'm thinking none of the other St. Cloud mitsu guys would be able to make it on short notice, but I happen to have the day off. If anyone near me would like to go and pay their respects and ride along I'd be willing to do that as well.

I'm on the way down, I live right by primo. We could meet around there and go down together from there.

Wow, I'm really sorry to hear about this. I never met the guy but I heard he came up and watched the chumpcar race at BIR. Pretty terrible, definitely makes you think about how little time we may have left.

I don't think I'll be able to get off of work that day, but I'll try.

Question, is the donated money going right to his family or an arrangement or..?

I had some good conversations with Michael. He's always been really nice and it's a shame he's gone now. Guys need to get checkups if you aren't feeling well. I remember seeing his FB posts about his heart. So sad.
