| Well all,
I'm sure that some of you know but I still wanna give a shot out to Scott Kalitta who gave his life on the track today in a funny car accident.
Always tough for everyone when something like this happens and from a motorsports follower no matter the type. It hurts to see and I will be praying for him and his family.
He was a hell of a racer and it was all he knew. The man retired twice and couldn't stand it so he would come back and do it again. He went out doing what he loved and for many there would be no way better, but it is always the hardest for all of his friends and family that have to go on! _________________ Randy Ellison

| Wow, sorry to hear. I hadn't heard anything about it, but I've been out of the loop for a few days.
These guys put their life on the line every time they fire the engine, so for to him retire twice and continue to race he had to love the game. _________________
