death at grattan yesterday

R.I.P.

Be careful out there. My first track day was good until the poor fella lost his life.

That real sharp one right before the straight. Took me 2 sessions before I was coming out of it in a good line. Guy went off the track and into the wall. They had a heli come in, but he died right when it was by the track. Somebody said he broke his neck.

It was Mike Fox from the VW/Toyata dealership in Rochester. He was the father of a 15yo girl....
He crashed in 10a and died instantly..Not sure of why he went off of the track though....

More info including funeral arrangements

RIP Mike......
I have met Mike many of times, from previous work experience in the dealerships, a real stand up guy.
