☹ this makes me pretty sad. He was a nice kid from what I could tell, really respectful and cool about everything (even getting beat by a white van). You obviously knew him much better than the rest of us, so I know it must feel worse for you. Sorry for your loss, Trav. Hit me up if you need anything. ---

Go for it, I was with him in the car the night he raced the duramax van… And I raced him once in the g8… Good kid but sometimes the racing and speeding takes some of us, could have been any of us im sure. Who here doesnt ever go fast enough to kill people? All of us (if not most) have something in common, we like cars and we like speed. ---

I’m not going to argue (we’re assuming) that drunk driving and excess speed took his life, but nothing is official yet, so please don’t create drama before there is at least an official explanation. ---

This is a little different, people actually witnessed what happened with your friend. Im not taking sides. Heres what I think (not like it matters) but people can go on whichever side of the fence they want. When the truth comes out and the dust settles one side will look stupid. Ex. We make fun of this kid for driving like a retard possibly drunk. then the truth comes out and someone ran him off the road or he was about to be hit so he tried to react and the outcome was’nt what one would want. The people who said ahhh hes a retard he was driving drunk acting like an idiot look like idiots. Slowgto, I dont know you and this is no attempt to talk shit, but in your case the truth came out and it matched all the shit people were saying about. Either way its unfortunate that these type of things happen and people will say what they want. In a perfect world a death will not be part of a joke, but this isnt a perfect world obviously. ---

no see the real point here is when someones friends or relatives get killed maybe people should just shut up about it and let people deal with what they have to instead of coming on fucking shift518 and try to make a spectical out of everything…i am in no way goin at this kid…i simply said is this where we can come in and bash him like the rest of the jerk offs on here did to the kid in amsterdam and my friend… i think when it comes to death reguardless of how it happens it shouldnt be made into a laughing matter…i feel bad for this kid…i think about that shit everyday i get in my car or on my bike…what if this is the day…its fuckin scary we all fuck around and do dumb shit…no need to come on here and try to make the people who are suffering already over a death feel even worse or possibly spark shit to cause real issues… thats my point… ---

@ slowgto go ahead dude say what you wanna say , it’s been said it’s probably due to drinking and speeding , not hard to believe I knew the kid , he most likely made a bad choice and met some bad luck and this is the result I’ve came so close to killing myself driving too fast down twisty back roads and very close to killing myself on a bike a few times so honestly it’s no different for him , he came more than close and he died that could be me tonight , who knows I won’t get offended by what you say because you never met him and you can say whatever is in your head that’s fine ---

Same here. I am sorry for what you are going through, both Travis and Greg. I know I can say stupid shit to be funny and I’m often distasteful in that regard but I really feel for you guys. We can all be assholes from time to time, we have to try and remember that someones passing is a really serious matter. Sorry if I got too sentimental ITT, its just the grown-up part of me being real. ---

I have to agree with gregg on his point , if it wasn’t Travis that posted this and someother person did poking fun at it . Most members would be tearing him apart till Travis came in saying he was a friend and most calmed down . It just shows that people don’t care about circumstances and just go on here say . Personally if he was drunk and killed a friend he isn’t any better than the kid that killed another in the mustang . Travis I’m sorry he was your friend and he passed but let’s be honest if u didn’t know him you would also be thinking the same thing .
