bad news from levels.

Post by Bartman »

I heard today that a well known racer from timaru passed away while racing his datto on saturday.
I've not heard the official story, but the rumour going around his he suffered a heart attack before crashing. Very sad to hear. But If you're gonna go, at least he got to go out doing something he loved.
They don't call me the man with the rubber arm for nothing you know.............
