As some of you may know Mark Adams who was a mechanic for JGR when they first started and then worked with the Nitro Circus Crew and recently as Stewarts practice mechanic. Mark was hit today in Florida by a driver who was reportedly texting and swerved over when he was helping a lady who ran out of gas on the highway.

Rest in peace Tex

Wow, terrible.

I once helped an old guy change a flat on an interstate bridge(ie 70mph speed limit). He refused to let my 30 something body do most of work so it took twice as long to replace the flat tire and thus twice as many chances to get sideswiped by a car going 70. Scary stuff

Texter's are worse than drunk drivers. At least the drunk has his eye/s on the road.

He's also worked at KTM for a while several years ago.
Met him the first time at Steel City when I was helping Sleeter.

Fuck mobile phones and fuck texters while driving, mobile / cell phones are one of the worst things to happen in human technology (areas in and around cities are a sad sight to see these days)
