He was a good friend. I still think of him as such, but it'd be presumptuous of me to assume he feels the same; we've only spoken once in the last 9 years.

I met him as he was beginning the design on the Miller motorsports park tracks in Utah, in '04.

He is the most prolific track designer ever, with tracks all over the world. Many like to criticize that his tracks are too "computer generated", but the man uses the tools to create AMAZING tracks, and the facilities around them. And he's well known fir helping create motorsports culture where there isn't one. Look at his barber motorsports park as an example.
