For me, it's another weekend of continuing to clean shtuff out of the garage and selling bits to raise some Pcar funds.
Be safe.

Sam,
I couldn't make it to Laguna, my friend's team is racing is out there this weekend. They gave me some bad news a few hours ago. One of the drivers I knew died this morning at the track, so I thought he crashed. Called my buddy right away and he said nope no crash, they had the driver's meeting and went out for the 1st session he saw him come off the track as if the car had died. By the time the medics got there, he wasn't breathing apparently, and he died from a heart attack in the car, very sad
Anyway I will try to make it to the event on Sunday we'll take my wife's 996.
Cheers!

Thanks everyone, yes very sad to receive news like this. Of course when you first hear of someone dying at the race track you think of the worse. Glad it wasn't a crash and no one was injured. As Sam mentioned at least he went out behind the wheel of a Porsche which he loved, so that's a consolation.
