Met him very briefly in 2016 at the Petersen Auto Museum for a Microsoft event - got tickets through the San Diego Mustang Club. Great event. I had a Focus ST at the time and he was there with his Focus RS.

This news upset me. I still can't believe that a man who knows how to operate vehicles so well couldn't handle a snowmobile. Why did he get on it in the first place?

He was out riding with friends and went up a steep incline...the machine flipped and rolled back over him.

Lots of people die on these things and ATV's too.

A friend of mine with 3 school aged children died 10 years ago when his ATV flipped and rolled over him
