I sat here and started a reply four times and just couldn't find the right words to say. To say Drooze will be missed is an understatement. Whether you liked Drooze or not it's been a long, long time(if ever) since I saw anyone here with so much energy and enthusiasm and I think he gained many friends and admirers just because of it and I know he provided my world with much inspiration and laughter. Although I never got to meet him in person and looked forward to it, Drooze's light shown brightly(in Stock/Superstock) racing for a short time but will live with many of us for a long, long time.
Godspeed Chris and my condolences to the Wertman family and Mandie.
