    I had no idea :(. I apologize if I offended anyone. I loved him. I started a business and was away from the board and watching most racing besides Motogp for a few years.

  8. Agree with this. I think he’s much better suited for that role.

    Totally would have never put this to words but it makes a ton of sense and I totally agree.

    HPPT !!!

    Wasn't that long ago. But the thread was on this side of the forum. You would have had to leave the dungeon to see that.

    The motorcycle gods do some fucked up shit. Abe on scooter? Nicky on a bicycle?! GTFO!

    To be fair, Brian and Norick had zero influence on their outcomes. Nicky ran a stop sign at a hazardous intersection that put him in the path of a speeding car. Had he stopped, he’d probably still be with us.

    Dane Westby is another fucked up deal.

    I wasn't assigning blame or innocence. Just saying that it makes me mad that guys who raced motorcycles at 200 mph for a living went out that way. :(

    Hey now. I post here more actually. Especially during race season. I’m just so boooooored right now lol. It’s funny. I’ve been on the other side of it and knocked someone for not knowing about someone’s death but this one made me realize to never do that because i was rushed into a quick learning of his death and was trying to apologize while also grieve a little because this is someone who had been in my home before back when Thermosman used to sleep on my couch in Daytona and Drebber came by with Matt Lynn I think. Sorry. Run on sentence. I don’t feel like going back and editing.

    Oh! I was flat-out blaming “the motorcycle gods” whoever/whatever they may be.

    My father was a fantastic human being, as I’ve been told. He lost his life, saving a POS’s life who worked for my father. I was 8yrs-old and still don’t understand the “why” of any of it, at 51yrs-old.

    Them, I'm blaming. 100%. They could have told Nicky to chill.
