shocking, but not unsurprising considering the illness.
he accomplished more than i likely ever will, even in his short time. his performance during the Porsche Cup qualifying at Silverstone will always linger in my mind.
His WRC accomplishments are top notch. The ablility to pull a 360 on a straight in a GT3 are classic| |
