Memorial service for UCanTuna - Friday May 18rd, 2012
« on: May 15, 2012, 06:15:53 PM »


Come out and bid farewell to our much loved Tuna brother Ucan.  He had a charisma that drew people in even through just his voice. But it would even come through in his writing whether it was a race review or just a quick snippet in the non sequitur thread.  People were drawn to him almost imperceptibly or uncontrollably.  This made him a natural front man to help get our little society going.  Come out and thank him for everything he was able to teach each one of us while he was here.  We will be running where the the Tuna always called home from the very first time we got together, before we were Tuna!



When:  Friday, May 18rd  7:00pm eastern start
Where:  High Speed Ring
Car:  Honda S2000 '06 (Premium)
HP:  246
KG:  1060
Tuning:  Open
Tires: Racing Hard
Laps:  12
Colors:  Come dressed in black or silver
Lounge: HostTuna



A Funeral Procession will be held at 11:40 pm eastern.  
This will consist of a silent, single file 2 laps around HSR at a pace speed of 70mph.

I'm sad to report I cannot make this date.  Could someone please run a race for me, dressed in black, to honor my friend?

I'll try my best to be there.

BTW, here's a pic of his S2k that he left on the RIP forum.


I'll relay the event to the team as well.

I will be getting on early this afternoon and will race under HostTuna.  That way, if anyone needs a last minute request handle, it can be done very quickly.

Brindle, please send a request to my new ID Tuna_girls_n1cup.

I'm looking forward to joining the school and taking a swim with you dudes tonight. This will be a great way to remember Gary. I told Rick at dinner last night how lucky I was to get to meet Gary in person. He was a helluva guy.

I've seen that name pop up on the Academy leaderboards a few times and wondered who it was.  Excellent name my friend!
