NAC, Subie enthusiast bites the dust

[John Larson]

A sad note here.  Over the weekend a member of a WRX list met his maker in a
traffic incident near here.  Reports aren't clear whether the fatality was
the driver or the passenger.  Apparently an enthusiast group was holding a
get together in our area and were engaging in a spirited (30-40 mph over the
speed limit) challenge of the laws of physics on a mildly winding (and wet)
stretch of 2 lane road in the foothills. After drifting left onto a turnout,
the car crossed the roadway and went for a swim in a creek.  We might all
benefit from a moment of reflection of our sometimes unbridled enthusiasm
and faith in the abilities of our rides. Y'all be safe out there
