RIP. I have good memories of Troy accelerating out of turn #14 at Circuit Grand Bayou with his GT3RS crackling as the TC kicked in.

Wow so very sad to hear that. Over the years I was lucky to have talked to him plenty of times about all things porsches, modifying and whatnot Great sense of humor and will be missed. What a nice fella he was and RIP.

Although we never met, Troy was a major inspiration in building my 4.0. May God bless his Soul and bring great strength to his family and friends as they suffer thru this ordeal. Allan

So sorry to hear this. Glock Guru was one of the really enjoyable posters in this community. I'm sorry to have never met him.
RIP

Just reposting from another forum as the RSS guys are not sponsors on here I hope it's ok to post as they wanted to say a few words...

We're deeply saddened by the loss of our close friend Troy. Our deepest sympathies go out to his family.

Bryan, Myself and the entire RSS Team will always hold the fondest memories of our time spent with Troy and his family. He was a genuine friend and all around great guy!

His unexpected passing was a reminder to us all that life is short and fleeting. When we think of Troy we will always remember him doing what he loved best...










You will be missed Troy - "The Colonel" aka "Glockguru"

Shocked to hear of Troy's passing. Condolences to his family. I used to poke my head in at RSS to check on the progress of the "Colonel" and his 4.0. RIP.
