Man--- that sucks. One of my dreams was to buy a Vette and have him work his magic on it. A friend of mine is an old racer and he knew John personally.

This is a great loss to the motorsports world

So do those updates run from Oct 28, 2002 to Dec 19, 2002??? Has he been in the coma for over a year? Or did the year change somewhere in those updates and it just wasn't mentioned?
