I'm absolutely speechless.

DrEvil just texted me this.

I was talking to him on the 17th all day long, and then he didn't respond to my text yesterday. No big deal...he took a day or two sometimes.

Scott was the most talented fabricator and engineer I'd ever met, and he was a good friend. He took my car so much farther than I would have ever been able to on my own. When I handed things over to him for Grey Matter, he reassured me it was in good hands. It truly was.

We talked a LOT over the next 10 years, and he was always quick to offer sage advice on whatever the issue was. Truly gifted engineer.

I'm literally at a loss right now. Holy shit.

Wow, so sad. Way too young.

I always enjoyed seeing his projects (whether person or for others) and conversing, especially the back and forth on intimate details of Bosch ABS systems. Really sharp dude.

Oh man. This sucks.

I had the pleasure of meeting Scott (and his wife) in person during my tenure as custodian of Grey Matter. He was a gifted engineer, always willing to help out and a share his knowledge and excitement. For that I will miss him most.

RIP, Scott. RIP.

Oh man...this sucks

I've been MIA for a bit due to a move so coming back and seeing this is so SAD.

Scott and I spoke several times, and he came to my business to pick up some items years ago. Cool dude...and yes...so young

RIP

Oscar

Had a few back and forth PMs with Scott - he helped me track down some parts - and tbh, the impression that I was left with, was that he seemed to go out of his way to help. Sorry to hear about this and prayers sent for his family.
