Absolutely shocked and extremely saddened by news of Freddy's passing....one **** of a guy that like so many others have been taken from this world way too young.
I look back and am thankful for the opportunity to have met Fred face to face when he and his entourage (haha

) came to the Indy show a couple years back.
As a few have already mentioned the man had a wealth of knowledge covering a wide range...and what's even better is that he would never hesitate to share that gift with those of us here on the forums when questions arose.
A selfless individual and a friend to all! Rest in peace Freddy and may prayers be with your wife and family!
