This is terrible news! I said a prayer for John when I heard about this via email from his wife. I've only met John in person once, and he was one of the most enthusiastic men I know when it comes to their own business.

My condolences go out to the Stewart family.

I'm sad to hear this. While I only knew him from e-mail and posts on this board, he was very helpful and well respected.

I'm very sorry to hear this as well. I've been out for most of this week opening my own business and only found out a day or two ago. Everyone at SAM loved it when John was there and we always loved hearing his stories about racing and his business and some of the old days. He will be missed very much everywhere and by everyone.

My condolences go out to the Stewart family. John had had a huge impact on nitrous usage in dragracign for over twenty five years. He also founded Nitrous Express and was involved in other companies.
