Unfortunately on November 6, 2011 I lost one of my best friends. The motorsports industry has taken another heavy hit in one of the toughest years we have already had. I was lucky enough to talk Jim the night before his passing as he was in Dallas, TX for the NASCAR race doing a FMX demo for the fans. On the first jump of Sunday morning, he was tragically killed from a mechanical failure of his bike. I was so blessed to spend time with Jim at home, In mother G and on the road for X Games, DEW Tour, Nuclear Cowboyz and the Boost mobile tour at NASCAR events. There wasnt a nicer person in America than Jim McNeil. I will miss you forever and see you once again someday. GODSPEED.
