For anyone who doesn't know there is a Guest Book available to sign to leave messages for Geralds family, or to him, or whatever you feel like leaving. I encourage all who knew him to go and sign it. I have arranged to have it left open permanently. Thanks.

So I did a boost leak test this weekend and had a question. Do the cams need to be in a certain position to get a valid test? I can hear leaking from what may be the fuel injectors or the throttle body seals which are both common areas...I just couldn't pinpoint it exactly.

So it look as if Gerald had almost .5 mile to accelerate. not pretty. geez.

anyway a funny story, When i bought my first EVO Gerald was working up the papers when I told the sales guy (Bryan), "thats the one I want" and I was told I couldnt have it. So he has always had a place in my heart as the guy who stole my first EVO. then when he wrecked it, I was pissed, but honestly once he got the IX, i traded mine of too for a IX too. thats not the reason I did it, but still is funny non the less.

these type of situations are always a reality check. kind of like when our other friend was killed for his car. pretty ****ing dumb, ya know.

does anyone need/want a ride on Thursday?

I found out about the accident yesterday when Bryan sent me a PM. My prayers go out to all of his loved ones in this very tough time. Also to you...all of his friends. I didnt know Gerald extremely well & only hungout with him a few times but when I did hangout with him or talk to him he was always made me laugh and/or smile. He was a good guy.

RIP Gerald!

I removed it. That thread was in complete poor taste. The gruesome details and the pictures posted without the families permission was not something I am going to tolerate.

Again, like I said, noone needs to see that. Gerald was a good guy... just made a bad decision that cost him his life.
