Does anyone know how he died? I suppose it doesn't really matter, but I thought he was fairly young? Like in his 60s?

Seems like one day he's posting all over H-T, and the next he's gone.

Sucks how that works.

Eventhough I don't personally know him, I always enjoyed his technical responses to FI questions. That guy seriously knew so much ----.

RIP

He was a blatant hype-wagon builder, I argued with him a lot, but the one time I called him on the phone he was nothing but cool with me and answered my Q's.

RIP

He choked to death on a Benson sleeved cock. He had aids too, and wanted to tell me repeatedly that I needed roughly 10k to boost a honda.
Theres plenty of people left to ------ feces on that forum. :-*

This is the guy on h-t that posts all the engine building information?

It'll be sad to see him gone...one of the few people on H-T that actually had some worthwhile information.

Earl was cool. I disageed with him as far as his thoughts of what should go into my build... But he was very, very cool, and very knowlegeable... A pleasure to talk to. If he wouldnt have tried to talk me out of my Endyn Rollerwave pistons, and bearings- he would have had my business... Im not a big fan of CPs, and didnt see ACL bearings as a better alternative to oem bearings.

RIP Earl.

Probably because funerals are expensive. I never met Earl, but I'm sending some funds. Just like when everyone sent funds for Jordan. Alot of us didn't know him either, but we donated. That way, I know when I die out of nowhere, I won't have to worry because someone else will come through and do the same.
Just because the guy and his son had a race car and a website that they sold parts doesn't mean they're rich.

Truth. He wasn't exactly an old guy. 60's I think? I don't know the circumstances but I'm sure his passing was unexpected and thats rough on families both emotionally and financially.

When I die, poof I'm gone and I fail to give a ----. Cremation runs $500, hint hint. There will be no funeral to attend. Anybody who remotely cares, or is just looking for an excuse to drink, can spend their money on liquor and either congregate or hole up solo as they see fit.

*DING DING DING WE HAVE A WINNER*

I am no longer living, therefore do you think I really care what happens to my body? Hopefully I'd have enough money set aside to make the family happy to have the whole ritualistic open casket, lets cry for two days then throw him in a ditch ceremonies. But if not, burn me. I'm dead negros, I don't give a crap anymore.

But for pete's sake, if you cremate me, dont leave the remaining ashes in a vase above the fireplace. That's just ------- creepy.

That's why us non-Christians do it, Sinno. That, or become the secret ingredient in Massengil.

I don't get why a lot of religious people are against cremation. I mean why not? 2nd statement made me LOL :6

My Aunt Paula asked to be cremated and have her remains sprinkled in her backyard. Yeah, great idea, everytime your former dog goes outside it takes a ---- on your remains. Also, my Uncle sold the house. Bye bye aunt paula :3

Either way, I'll send some loot to your daughter. Wether she uses it for college or heroin isn't my problem.

not a old guy??????

MAYBE why I liked Earl, he passed at 62. Nazii admin at times, but was right!

OLDEST male in my family was 53 (my dad) and I'm almost 40.

Seeing the facts about Earl, I see myself and others.......READ while you can!

yea... i don't think 62 is too old... My dad is quite a bit older... I guess I try not to think about it.

Saw a racer on TV the other day (Dr. Charles I think) who said when he dies, he wants to be cremated and put in a tank of gasoline and then run through an engine down the quarter mile.

Sounds like a good way to go out...stick me in a Top Fuel or Funny Car though!!!

RIP Earl

I met him in person, genuine guy...will be missed for his knowledge.

While I understand Yuriy's anger at blatant marketeering, Earl was a Talent in a venue where few Talents exist.

If he made his name and feed his family in part by pushing top dollar ---- to make $$$$$ bulletproof builds where some of us could do the same for a fraction, so what? All the fools need a set of balls to swing from, it kept them out of this forum where their mentality isn't wanted, and at least they got something when they forked Earl some cash.

Respect where respect is due, guys.

PS - Bone, you just need to eat healthy and do more exercise. I recommend sex, it is an excellent cardiovascular workout. :y

whatever I had personal beef with him and I tend to get pissed off when people die and people want to tell everyone about it
everyone who gives a ---- will find out anyways
and whatever he was old, in Russia 60 is like 100 here
he lived a full and healthy life and made many young men happy
