Time for remembrance
Thanksgiving of 2003 we lost a C4 Drag Racer to liver cancer.
Keith Brownlee, most of you know him as the dude with the wheelstanding Black C4.
It was a street car from start to finish, from the days as a stocker to a nine second beast.
Here is the video tribute to Keith and his awesome car

In this video which was Keiths last run down the 1/4 mile another Forum member (wearing the white baseball hat) had an anuerysm and was in a coma for a while.

Last year on Christmas Eve we lost a long time C4 member, Hogsmak,also to liver cancer. Mike was a real close friend of mine and if you ever saw any of my Route 211 videos, he was the guy leading the way in every video.
Here is my tribute to my good buddy, we still think about you dude.

I knew Dave (with the Callaway) met him at e-town for some of the gm high tech efi races. Went out of his way to make me feel welcome and introduced me to quite a few guys. Paul (white and black gs clone) told me about his death in Vegas at 04 Carlisle. I was shocked. Altough I did not know him very well. His death upset me.

To Mr. Mojo: Obviously an individual who thinks 'friendship' is more than just a word.

I have unable to bring myself to watch the remembrance video for Hogs. It was just too close to my own brothers passing... and just too close in general.
My heart goes out to their families this time of year. It's hard to loose a loved one so very close to the Holidays.
