The fact that Don was hit by a car while he was trying to go to the aid of another motorist is so symbolic, so Don.

He did a lot of good for a lot of people. He cared about a lot of people.

The fact that he was involved in a collision and his first thought was to get out and see if the other parties were OK was so typically Don. It was exactly what you would have imagined he would do.

He's not an easy guy to describe simply, but he was a guy of great simplicity.

Doing another three-box (sedan, like Neon) or trying to out-Korean the Koreans just didn't make sense.

We're trying to be as well prepared for the Mac Tools U.S. Nationals as we've been all season. It's no secret that the G Squared team has been underachieving all year. That being said, the facts are: we have a very good rider, a very good motorcycle, a very good power plant from S&S and my partner is the best tuner on the planet, but items beyond our control has keep us from putting it all together. My goal as co-owner of this operation is to be sure that we're as well prepared as we can be for this weekend.
