SFVISBF fatality

Holy Crap, I just saw on the local news that a guy was killed today with the SFV Illegal Soap Box guys... Geez!

 

Any details? That's too bad.

 

Bob,
ABC News said that one of the guys hit a parked car.
Nothing on the LA Times website yet...

OH NO ---- Thats terrible.....
just saw the article about the mini bikes in TR&K.
Thats real bad news, what a shame......

 

Bad news. That'll put pressure on the future of the organisation.

 

sad day man

 

Rip

 

I wonder if they are still going to have thier races now

 

Sorry to hear this news.

 

man that sucks, i am sure there will be a speacial intrest group formed to stop any more racing. the guys are going have to lay low for a while i am sure.

 

Darn shame, but the fact that it was dangerous made it cool...

 

wow that sucks. very bad news....

 

That sucks. And I bet that will be the end of SFVISBF.

 

I sent a PM to rev106,but haven't heard anything yet!

 

Dammit, I went to see a race once, it was crazy f-in dangerous. Alot of HAMBERs participate. Bad Bob and I were going to build cars, but never followed thru.
Sad.

 

Followed halfway through! Never got around to finishing it!

 

I don't think so,,,It is a outlaw sport and I don't see this deadly accident puting an end to it.

It's like sky diving off skyscrapers people have died doing it but it's the danger that draws people like a moth to a flame.HRP

 

Bummer!!

 

Man this is bad, I feel for his family.
I also hope the guys that were there are not too messed up about it, being a party to something like this can really affect you.
Viva La SFVISBF

 

Could be the start of the end. Sad, looked like a blast. I'm sure the danger was part of the appeal.
