Re: Rip markus svenson
He was a good friend of my oldest boy Robert. Jon and
I knew him also as well especially Jon. He got him a position on a ProStock team and Robert has worked in the racing industry for many years in different capacities, since that opportunity thanks to Markus!

Re: Rip markus svenson
Markus bought my 69 Camaro around Nov. 2012. We became good friends, I am very saddened by his passing, condolences to his family. He loved to talk about clutch management and was a master of the starting line. Was a Mopar guy at heart but had a soft spot for 69 Camaros, you will be missed.

Re: Rip markus svenson
I never got to meet Markus, but knew the name. This has got to be very hard on his family and friends. Gone WAY TOO SOON.
May God bring peace and comfort to his family and friends R.I.P. Markus.

Re: Rip markus svenson
Sad to hear this news, really enjoyed talking with Markus at the 2019 Finals at Pomona, where his was racing his red 4 speed 69 Big Block 4 speed Camaro. It was interested talking to him about clutches, and running radial slicks with a stick car. A clever fellow, good racer, and a nice guy. RIP.

Re: RIP, Markus Svensson
The world needs more people like Markus. Wish we could meet for breakfast at the Pomona airport one more time!
