Andrew Dombroski passed away today. Drew was only 20 but already had proved he was a formidible racer in any vehicle. He had been racing his Granddad's "Wild Mouse" GTX for the last several years, and had earned the first of what should have been many track championships at Dragway 42 this year. He had been feeling bad lately, and had passed out a few days ago, and he never woke up. I've heard blleding of the brain, but have little other info. I'll post more as it becomes available. Drew was a great kid, a fantastic racer, and a good friend. Godspeed, buddy...

Oh no. What a great kid. That really sucks. Grandparents are NOT supposed to bury their kids.. Sorry to hear that. Great car. I remember that as far back as Tim's Toy Charger, when it was a lot slower than now..

When I was growing up, I watched his grandpa Denny race the same car. Poor Denny, keep him and the rest of his family in your thoughts and prayers.

Godspeed Andrew I met Andrew for the first time at the Chrysler Classic Norwalk event this year. Was kind of weird for me as I was used to seeing and racing with Denny "Wild Mouse" at 42 years ago. Denny was real proud of Andrews accomplishments and you could see it in his eyes. Denny is a great bracket racer and Andrew had one of the best teachers a Young Gun could have! My thoughts and prayers are with the Dombroski Family. Greg Travis
