This is awful news. I was just talking to him a few days ago on facebook and it sounded like his recovery was going well. Something drastic must of happened. What a great guy and great LTX Supporter. He will be missed.
My condolences to his family.

Maybe the family will still want to see the unicorn make a few passes and run the number he always wanted.
He was a good friend for about 16 years, I knew him when I was still driving an LT1 Z/28.
Lots of teary drag racers in Chicago today.

Extremely sad news for the whole lt1 community. He was a lot of our idols and a great guy to talk to. Helped me a lot with my build through PMs, and it is his old heads, intake and valve train on it.
He will be missed!!

This is very sad news. Every time i went to the track Chris was the first person I called to let him know how it went. Im truly at a loss for words. His daughter texted me five minutes ago. She said he developed a blood clot in his lung. just spoke with him a few weeks ago and he was getting better. RIP my friend.

Definitely a sad day for the racing community. He was a great guy who will be truly missed. My condolences go out to his family.
Last I heard from him was last week through facebook. He had surgery cause of a nerve that had pressure against it. He was recovering just fine but he developed a blood clot from bed rest that went unnoticed.
