It's sad when a parent loses a child even a grown child... it's something that isn't suppose to happen. We all need to send our prayers, and strong uplifting thoughts .....

I'm sad to pass along this news. Dave and Cindy Austin, long time supporters of the NW Tour as part of the Harding #39 crew, lost their son Brad who was in his mid 20's. He passed away early Sunday morning in his sleep. Brad hadn't been feeling well. Although there is no known reason as of yet. I will repost when I have all the service information. The Service could be as soon as the end of the week.

Dave and Cindy and their kids hadnt been to many NW Tour races this year becauce Brad had been racing at South Sound Speedway in the late models.
