Default MI racer dies testing car on the street

http://little2v.com/tofieclip.wmv

Tofi was testing out a car for someone at 9 and groesbeck, lost control and crashed into a pole. I am just passing alone some news, I have known Tofi for along time and it goes to show no matter what driving skill you have anything can happen at anytime. He was a licenced 6 second driver and this should have never happened.

The fastest Driver I personally knew.

sorry to hear that man. Just shows how even the best of drivers can't be prepared for the unexpected.

I heard about it on the news but I didn't think they gave any real details.

RIP.

Hey everybody. I am trying to get the word out to anyone who knew Tofie. I am posting the link to the funeral home and the info about the funeral and visitations. Tofie was my cousin and I will miss him greatly. If anyone would like to attend the visitation or funeral or know anyone that would, please send them this information. Thank you all and Godbless.
