    Here is one of the videos I have, of my Boy racing on the John.....I always expected him to die racing his car, not from a cowards bullets....He always told his me when he went to heaven probably one of his friends was going with him, because he ususally was racing.....he loved and lived to race, that was his passion, oh and very secretive about his car and what he did to it, he even had a hiding spot we found under the dash for an extra Nitrous bottle......

    I heard it's a sad story. Do you know what happen? Heard bits and pieces. Something about a guy going out there to stop street racers and Adam had words with him, and got shot.
    he had his car parked and these fools kept doing donuts and spraying his car with rocks, when they came back he went and said something to them and a kid got out of the car and shot him......that's the way I understand it.

    Very sorry to hear about your son. I can't imagine loosing one of my two boys like that.

    Can't tell you how many times I've walked over and yelled at some kid for doing donuts at "the lot" and spraying cars with rocks -- I bet others here have done that too. Could have happened to any of us.

    No, it happened the way I told it, the guy left, after Adam and his friends yelled at him for throwing up rocks on the cars, and chipping thier cars, and he came back in a different car about 15 minutes later, disguised, with two friends, blocked my sons car in, jumped out of the car, my son was trapped by his car door, he couldnt run and duck like the others and he shot my son 4 times.....It is a nightmare, thanks for your kind words, just warn your children, this world is not the way it was when we were young, no more fist fights, now they use guns, I hate to say it, but we carry a gun all the time now, wont leave home without it, its dangerous out thier....Thanks Ethlekilledfred for coming where I hang with the racers to let me know that someone was wondering what happened, hopefully the Mich State Police can get the other two now for us. This site is just like the other site, its a copy of gofastzone......

    No problem, I know that thier is no harm intended, its just in the racing community so many stories fly around, and the stories always change, I started letting the guys know if they want the truth if they hear a rumor, just message me for the real answer, do you live in the Flint area? Do I know you?

    Whiplash-REALLY sorry to hear about your son. As you mentioned earlier. We not only fought with our fists back then, but the fight usually ended up in some mutual respect and good friendship. Nowadays, one's dead, and the other in prison. It's just gotta STOP! Ya just gotta believe your kid's in a better place
