For any of you long time POC (SoCal) members, our respected friend Topper Chasse has passed on. I first remember him in his orange 9146 doing hot laps at RIR and Willow Springs back in 1978. He was a talented driver, and I always admired his skills on the track. He always had something good to say. He will be missed.
Friends can celebrate his life tomorrow 9/14/05 at The Church of the Calvary, 4201 Whittier Bl. Whittier, CA. My condolences to the Chasse family. Marty |

Very sorry to hear about that. I only met Topper once, and didn't truly realize who I was meeting at that time, but learned more of his near-legendary status later.
This pic is from an HSR West event at Willow 3 years ago - from what I recall he was really showing the young bucks the way around the track, that day. His lap times in this car were like 10+ seconds quicker than I currently run in my car which is quite similar. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/pray.gif) RIP Attached image(s)
