I can't believe it. I didn't know Paul that well, I only talked to him a few times, but his advice and passion for the sport really inspired me to better my own driving. I was looking forward to talking to him more. I don't think I've ever meet a more patient and caring instructor. He will be missed....

I just heard.


I'm sorry.




I didn't know him very well, but seemed like he was a good guy.


I hope he's in a better place.

The good die young!

What a shame! I had the pleasure of watching him on Sept 09 from the medical station at Laguna, he made it seem effortless!.

He's no doubt spinning dust clouds weaving in and out through the cosmos!

God Speed.

We barely knew him from the OTC's but are saddened by the loss. He was a ferocious racer and a great guy.

I just read in the current issue of Sport Compact Car that Paul was planning on entering a highly modified S2000 in this year's Ultimate Street Car Challenge. Would have been nice to see how it would have done.
