R.I.P. Mike. Peace be with you.

RIP
RIP
RIP.😢
Oh no!
Its been so weird... that the past 2 weeks, interviews with him have been popping up in my Youtube feed and now this!
Oh man, the one recent interview i watched he didnt look too healthy. Overweight, a bit nervous and jumpy. So sad for his family and friends.
I always dug his story of going over to Europe, admired him for it and he appeared to be VERY well liked over there.
RIP Gunner.
Man , that sucks
RIP Mike
Will never forget watching you as a kid fly your XR500 farther than anyone off a sender of a jump at the Elsinore Grand Prix in the mid 90's. Absolute legend
Stray Cat RIP.
Oh man, what the heck?!
Shoot 😳
I remember him racing the Troy Ohio MX national on a Cagiva. I was cheering for him and hoping he did well. Can’t remember the year and couldn’t find any results for him in “The Vault” so he must not have qualified. Loved the gear he was wearing.
RIP Mike. Too many guys exiting this life early.
When I was 10 years old espn had a mx race from Carlsbad. I got a vhs tape and recorded it. Was like 1989 or 1990. I watched it a million times. Mike Healey and “The Rocket” Rex Staten are forever embedded in my mind. Sad for his passing but thankful for the great memories.
Sure hate to hear that. R.I.P. Mike.
An unforgettable racer and personality, for sure! RIP Mike Healey

I got to see him rip 80s in person a few times, RIP
I got to race against him at MXGP at Hollister Hills support class 1987. RIP.
Horrible! Sending love to his friends, and family.
He was still a "young" man. WTF!?
same
Healy and Huffman in the same week. Not a good week at all . Godspeed to both , and you'll be missed.
Goodwin ?
Maybe meant Huffman?
Mike Goodwin the long time announcer died
Rest easy and peace for your family.
This is the random interview that popped up in my Youtube feed a few weeks ago.
Mike Goodwin was a promoter that started SX. He’s the one who was incarcerated for the killings of Mickey Thompson and his wife.
I haven't watched this interview with Ping but i will try to in the next week or so.
Healy, Trampis and Donny Schmidt were in my age group,... a little older... but I always admired them for going over to Europe to give it a go and have some adventures
