Title: A little help for an old friend Post by: Mike on June 09, 2012, 07:52:10 PM Some of you newer folks might not remember Skizot (Scott) for his amazingly clean engine bay or perfectly clean wheels but, you should know him as a great person who does his best to help others as shown in his thread (link below). I know he has helped out many members in his more active days as Tim can attest to, but, now it seems he could use a little help.

Check out the site below, and if you can make a donation. Scott is a great guy, and deserves our support. http://www.gofundme.com/pdsp4 (http://www.gofundme.com/pdsp4) Title: Re: A little help for an old friend Post by: timot_one on June 09, 2012, 08:37:29 PM Hmmm. I have to give that guy a call. I haven't talked to him in about a year. Good stuff Mike. How did you find this?
Title: Re: A little help for an old friend Post by: Mike on June 09, 2012, 08:39:44 PM Noticed it on Facebook, and shot him a message to confirm it was all legit. Figure its the least we can do for a great guy who was always looking to help others.
Title: Re: A little help for an old friend Post by: Mike on June 11, 2012, 01:34:59 PM Bump... Come on boys get behind this!
Title: Re: A little help for an old friend Post by: ikethegreat on June 11, 2012, 02:22:49 PM I try to give what I can when I come across something worth giving to. However... isn't this the same guy that bought a newish Porsche 911 not too long ago? Now he wants donations for a bike for his daughter? Call me an asshole if you want but that just doesn't sit right with me.
Title: Re: A little help for an old friend Post by: Mike on June 11, 2012, 03:10:55 PM In all honesty you should ask for the backstory before making ignorant comments. Its not actually his daughter he remarried and adopted 5 childern one of which has Autism. Pretty sure the fancy cars are gone my friend, and as he sacraficed personal pleasures to better the lives of other people.
Title: Re: A little help for an old friend Post by: timot_one on June 11, 2012, 04:16:05 PM The last time I spoke with him (over a year ago) he got rid of the Porsche. People's situations change.
Title: Re: A little help for an old friend Post by: ikethegreat on June 11, 2012, 04:54:45 PM I read his wife's comment on the donation page but it didn't mention anything about them being adopted. Not sure how I was supposed to know that. The last time I remember him posting is when he had bought the Porsche.
I'm glad to see I was wrong and I retract my previous statement. :kiss: Title: Re: A little help for an old friend Post by: Mike on June 11, 2012, 06:41:41 PM I think the kids are hers but he adopted them. Its alright I see where you were coming from. Scott is a good dude, and wouldn't ask if he didn't have to.
Title: Re: A little help for an old friend Post by: Fanitron on June 11, 2012, 07:05:49 PM Made a small donation... hopefully they can get the required funds together.
Title: Re: A little help for an old friend Post by: Mike on June 11, 2012, 08:05:38 PM Thanks man I'm sure they appreciate it.
Title: Re: A little help for an old friend Post by: b_beau_09 on June 14, 2012, 12:44:58 AM Sent some money, I hope it helps out some. I remember Scott was a really good guy.
