Default R.I.P. Shaun Carlson

For some of you who don't know, him and Stephan Papadakis built the first FWD Honda to hit the 9s....He soon worked lucrative deals to run for Ford Racing then eventually Mopar where he had a small stint in Prostock with the big boys.

Thanks for paving the way....

WTF?? Shaun wasn't even that old...damn :wtc:

From Formula Drift Blog
on an article about him home and recovering.

Shaun Carlson, owner of Team Mopar® Formula Drift star Samuel Hubinette’
s Mopar Drift Dodge Challenger, is recuperating nicely at home after
suffering a series of three heart attacks over the last month. The
attacks have been diagnosed as Brugada Syndrome, a genetic disease
characterized by an abnormality in the heart’s electrical system that
can cause potentially fatal arrhythmias.
