Please be safe working on your car!

A great member of the so-cal s2k community has passed after a horrific accident. The worst part is that he was always stressing safety. He is survived by his girlfriend and 9 month old son. Please include him in your prayers.

S2000 Forums -> *****Prayers needs smirfS2K05 (Paul)****** : S2KI

In memoriam – Smirfs2k05 (1988-2010) – S2KI – Honda S2000 Community

A trust fund has been set up for his son Luhka. All funds donated will be going into a 529 (college) fund. Our hope is that enough is gathered so that when Luhka is 18, his entire education will be paid for.

RIP Paul Flores.

Very tragic and sad. I dont understand how someone can get pinned down for so long without being noticed. isnt changing the differential a two person job? this is always a big fear of mine when working on the car even just changing the oil. either way R.I.P
