Sad news

One of our local autocrossers, rx7 owners, and all around good guy passed away from injuries sustained from a collision with a car. Benjamin Robinson passed away this last Saturday morning at Harborview Hospital in Seattle.

I got to know Ben over the last few years autocrossing out at Bremerton, we shared quite a few laughs and a love for rotaries, a great guy who truly enjoyed life and his friends, we will miss you down here, rest in peace buddy.

i love my motorcycles, but idiots like the guy in the jeep are why so many people are killed on them. People, please pay attention to what your doing. It literally could save someones life someday. RIP man. didnt know you but if you were into bikes and cars we would have gotten along pretty well.
