Shell Posted April 29, 2003 Share Posted April 29, 2003 Originally posted by Boxhead no offense shell, but he is still not dead, saying no point delaying the inevitable is pretty low, and i dont think that is right, unless he is dead, there is always hope, no matter how slim. sorry Boxhead...didn't mean to come across insensitive just, in my mind, I realised what the outcome of this would be...as sad as it is Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/14813-possum/page/2/#findComment-303261 Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlo Posted April 30, 2003 Share Posted April 30, 2003 Possum passed away this morning. I honestly have tears in my eyes. Possum was and has been a personal hero of mine for years. I used to watch in admiration as he made that subaru fly. He was a top bloke, always had time for his fans and fellow drivers, he will be missed. RIP Possum. http://foxsports.news.com.au/story/0,8659,...0-23210,00.html Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/14813-possum/page/2/#findComment-303360 Share on other sites More sharing options...
