Don't know if it's been posted here or not, but Leo Barnaby of Neverlift Racecraft(now Carroll's Rod's and Racecraft) passed away.
He had probably the fastest and quickest C4 in the world. Here's a video I found paying tribute to him. http://content.godragracing.org/leobarnabypasses.wmv There are other videos showing him running in the 6's at over 200 mph. |

From The Star-Ledger, www.nj.com:
Woodbridge man found dead in field after hit-and-run by Tom Haydon/The Star-Ledger Monday October 20, 2008, 5:35 PM The body of a Woodbridge man was found in a field early Sunday morning by a man walking his dog, according to police. Today, police said they believe Leo Barnaby, 40, died of head injuries sustained when his 1997 Mercury Cougar struck a dump truck and three parked vehicles late Saturday night, Lt. Thomas Gennarelli said. Genarelli said the hit-and-run accident involving the dump truck took place on Rahway Avenue just before 11 p.m. Saturday. Officers investigating the crash also found three parked cars hit on Yale Avenue, where Barnaby lived, according to the lieutenant. The damaged Cougar was parked in Barnaby's driveway, the airbag deployed, the windshield smashed, and the interior bloodied, the lieutenant said. But officers were unable to find the driver until about 8:50 a.m. Sunday, when the man walking the dog called police to report a body in a field off Mereline Drive in the Avenel section of the township, not far from Barnaby's home. An autopsy was scheduled for today. |

That's for sure. Very sad, he was in the prime of life and seemingly had everything going for him. We never know when our time or anyone else's is up. |

Someone else had did some research and found that where he was found compared to where he lived(and the car was parked) weren't exactly close to each other.

That is really bizzare! There must have been someone else in that car too!. It just doesn't work out.
So sad too. I wish the best for his family. |
