Nick Vashro - In our thoughts.

www.caringbridge.org/visit/nicholasvashro

That's the website for Nick. A Fellow DSMer. I'm sad to say we didn't knwo abotu this sooner, but I just wanted to give a shout out to Nick and hope he comes out of everything ok. I've met Nick and he was always upbeat and fun to be around.

Our prayers go out to him and his family.

Re: Nick Vashro - In our thoughts.

Anyone know more specifically what happened? It says he was in a 4-wheeler accident and had head trauma resulting from a fall but beyond that not much. This really sucks and I hope he can pull through! It looks like he has a lot of support, looks like 300+ log entries on that site!

He looks familiar, but I don't recall meeting him. That's very sad.

Re: Nick Vashro - In our thoughts.

He is the owner of KRAZYKOREAN's old car, correct?

EDIT: Nevermind, I just noticed the other thread about the car.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Nick for his recovery.

Re: Nick Vashro - In our thoughts.

Damn, I have known Nick for a long time. He was a customer of mine for many of his cars, and used to hang out a lot at the shop. This is very sad news. My prayers are with him.

Re: Nick Vashro - In our thoughts.

I've never met the guy, but I hope he gets better. My cousin's brother-in-law got into an accident 1 week and half ago and he's currently at the hospital slowly recovering. He had bleeding in his brain, so they had to put him into a coma for his brain to rest and they just took off the sedatives a few days ago. He's still hasnt woken yet. It's sad to hear about anything like this.

Re: Nick Vashro - In our thoughts.

I didn't know him personally, but he was good friends with a bunch of my friends. I feel really bad for all of them. I really hope he pulls thru, and my thoughts and prayers go out to everyone that loves him, because even if you don't know him, just think if it was someone you loved. You'd want people praying for them too.

Re: Nick Vashro - In our thoughts.

I think the first time I met Nick was at a DSM Dyno day at Elite.

Anyway, I had a good laugh on his part that day when I caught him trying to install his t-case upside down in his car up on the dyno. From that point on I always seemed to be able to help him out at the track or at some other event with his car. I didn't mind the random phone calls he made when he needed help with something on his DSM. He was always nice and polite, and thanked me for taking the time to help him out. The last time I saw him I helped load his 2g on a trailer at QPR.

Actualy the first time I met him was when Mike and Swanny installed a clutch at Barton's old place. That was a fun night, I learned how not to install a relay.

I wish him and his family the very best.

Jim

A bunch of random people. Nick used to be friends with him, and I used to be pretty good friends with Cassie, his ex. Or maybe they stayed together I have no idea.

I as well didn't meet him until his electrical basketcase was at QPR. He seemed to be just another guy with a DSM, and just wanted his damn car to run right.

I wish him the best and hope he stays strong.
