Was hoping to hear good news .... checked my phone for the umpteenth time ... RIP Bryan one of open wheels best is no longer with us.

Thoughts and prayers to Lauren, his family and every racers extended family the teams he drove for.

edit... I worked briefly on the car his father Tim drove prior to semi-retirement from a fractured back at Grass Valley.

Bryan spent many years out here doing the NZ Midget Internationals over the Christmas new year period, always a hard charger and with many wins out here, was hoping he would pull through but I have seen the video, and the way the next car hits the top of his cars cage i thought this might be the outcome,

he ran raced where ever he could, in what ever he could, and was fast in everything,

RIP,

I wonder if they had a halo on that ride. (although I doubt it woulda helped on an impact that hard)

Thats the first thing I put on my car.

We grew up a few blocks apart. I remember riding bikes with him as a kid when he was just starting racing. Lost touch and forgot all about him until I saw his name pop up on Facebook today. Horrible tragedy.
