I couldn't believe the news when I logged onto facebook last night. Was just talking to him last week. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and close friends. While I never got the chance to meet him in person, I was fortunate enough to have many conversations w/ him. I learned a LOT from him and he was always willing to help out. He even offered to loan me a nitrous system for the Pump Gas Drags back in 2008...offered to drive up to the test and tune the night before and tune it for me. That's one thing I wish I hadn't turned down for sure.
He was a great guy and we have definitely lost one of the good ones.
RIP Monte.
