Default Tyler Townsley

It is with great sorrow that I notify the ZR-1NetRegistry that yesterday Tyler Townsley passed away. He has helped so many of us technically, with his prototype knowledge and mainly his just a great person with friendship. Please keep his family in your thoughts and prayers.



May his roads always be clear and his foot on the floor. I know I am seriously going to miss him and expect many of you will also.


Rest in Peace my friend.


Joel

What a sad day. We spoke often and just spoke last week. We became good friends while we both owned the 88 EX cars.

Very sad day

Sad news indeed.
May God welcome him home,
and may all of his shifts be flawless at 7500 rpm.
God is GREAT, beer is good............. and people are crazy.
Thank you for all of your fraternal and learned help over the years.
You will be missed.
Rest well!

Marty

Didn?t know Tyler that well but always enjoyed meeting up with him at Carlysle or BG. His stories were always interesting when he told them with his unique Southern drawl. Godspeed Tyler.
