Reply With QuoteI remember taking a ride in his EVO on huge R compound tires, the launch was brutal and I couldn't stop smiling the whole run.
He was such a great guy and may he RIP with unlimited supplies of cigarettes and Hooisers.
RIP Jim. I always enjoyed talking with him and walking the course with him. Truly a very nice guy.

Yes indeed. He was my autocross school instructor. I still have his "post it note" with "Look ahead" written on it.Originally Posted by POS Racing

Godspeed Jim, had many great talks over the years on course walks, and have crossed wheels in similar cars a bit (C5's, MX5's, E36's). A true gentlemen of our sport.
RIP Jim, I really enjoyed his company at autocross events

Jim really was one of the most awesome racers I ever met. He always had a smile on his face, a smoke in his hand, and a story to tell. I have fond memories of long conversations while sharing a corner with him, talking about all the cars he'd owned and the places he'd been.
Godspeed Jim. You will be missed.

And, don't forget the Jim Harris rule, Oldest person on the corner gets the radio. It will mean even more to me now.
On the track, I am fearless.
If you were as slow as me, you wouldn't be afraid either.

Jim was good people and will be missed. Life is too short. Remember fondly those that have gone before us, and hold close friends and family that are still with us.

My car exceeds my driving ability. That's the only possible explanation.
