Duff1647545513 Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 (edited) He was a member on here, but not very active on the board. Danny Toops passed away last night in a crash. I grew up with him and he was such a great person. His diesel performance company was just starting to really take off. Some of you should know him, he used to be into DSMs and would come out to meets and track rentals. Today is a sad day, I'm really at a loss for words. RIP Danny.

iwishiwascool Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 I remember when he challenged me to a fight at roosters almost a decade ago. He eventually grew up and we became acquaintances. I talked to him last week about his website. It's weird, he is the last message in my facebook inbox.

FourString Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 So sad Dan was great guy. If you're are/were an Ohio DSM guy, he likely had some impact on your build at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XChris1632X Posted November 29, 2013 Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 I was not close to him but have known him for a lot of years. I just sold a set of injectors out of my truck that came from his puller years ago. It was very sad to be leaving town today and pass the site of the accident. Prayers go out to his family. Hopefully others learn from this and it can save a life. Don't drink and drive and don't ride with others who have been drinking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GSXRAntwon Posted November 29, 2013 Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 Danny and I have been friends for a long time, my heart literally stopped when I got the message this morning. Here is his arrangement schedule: The viewing will be Sunday 3-7 at Newport Church of Christ and Christian union ( south of London on 38 right next to the firehouse). The funeral will be held Monday at 11 also at the same place. He will be buried at the Kirkwood cemetery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
