Amen..same here..it was always a pleasure to watch the Kott family at the many venues we saw them at..and they nearly got a record or two at each event between Fritz and Jason..Gayle was also the SDRC club president when I became a member. :cheers:

Fritz will be greatly missed, hope to see the Kott family at El Mirage and any other venues Michelle and I race at.

Great video.  He was helping me fix my bike once and I saw an NOS bottle hose clamped to his old bike and I asked how he mixed nitrous and nitro.  He said "oh that's just an energy drink that I saw that at the convenience store and I thought, well let's mess with the competition a little bit".  I don't know why, it just struck me as pretty dang funny. 

I barely knew him but I could tell that he put his all into the effort and I sure respect that.
