Hey guys, we recently had a tragedy in our town involving a fellow minitrucker. He was on his bike at night, going into a hard curve, and there was a 2000lb Texas longhorn in his lane. Needless to say, he was killed instantly. This has brought all of the surrounding minitruckers together in my area. The guys decided to throw a dragsession the next night after the death in honor of him. I didn't know him personally, but his friends called me up to see if I would be interested in joining them in the dragsession. I didn't hesitate to go and offer support to all of his friends and family. Every since that night, about a month ago now, I feel like there is something we can do in situations like this one. So I have started the Foundation for Fallen MiniTruckers. This will be a foundation to help emotionally and spiritually to our families who have lost a fellow minitrucker. I see great potential in this b/c we seem to always have each others back, especially in times of tragedy. Most of you guys don't know me yet, but I have recently started a carshow apparel co. called WhyWear? http://www.why-wear.com/ " target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.why-wear.com/ Robbie over at Keg-Media is my artist/designer. I am in the process of designing memorial shirts for guys and gals who have passed in our scene. Every dollar made off of each shirt sold, will go directly into a seperate account for possibly throwing benefit shows or even memorial builds. Our first design will debut at Turkey Drag, but our second design needs ya'lls help. I want to do a memorial shirt with every fallen MT's name on it....so shoot me an email with your fallen friend's name (first and last).. There will be a link on our website soon for you to post info. in honor of all of our fallen MTs....pics and etc. Thanks for any support. Sorry for the lenghthy writeup, but thanks for reading.
God Bless,

Thanks for the response so far guys, the logo for FMT is almost finished and yes there will be stickers too. Every penny made off of the stickers we sell will also go into the foundation...So if you have a sticker on your ride, then everyone knows you are a proud supporter of our fallen brothers. As soon as the logo is finalized I will post it for ya'll.
