00z71sierra Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 need to log in to read. can someone post the artical Very bad news everyone. Mark had a fire at his house last night, his garage and many of his belongings are a total loss, his just finished Denali was in the garage and is also a total loss. He hasn't yet determined whether the basic engine and heads are salvageable or not. No question the truck is totaled, the interior and the complete engine bay are toast. Marks new laptop was in the garage so he currently has no Internet access nor elect service in his house. He will fill us all in with more details when he can. Please, at this time, no-one make plans for Dfest. I'm not sure yet, but I'm thinking we'll cancel this year Mark my friend, I am so sorry. You are one of the best persons I know, you didn't deserve this! EDIT 6/16/08 Mark, I know how you are and I don't want any argument about this..I set up a fund for you to help with the rebuild of your life. I setup a paypal account for you [email protected]. It is completely in your name and I have just e-mailed you the passwords to access it. Anyone that is able, please contribute to help our friend Mark get thru this catastrophe that he is enduring. Paypal [email protected]. Thanks everybody! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hankg42 Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 I opened this post expecting to see an update on a great truck. To say the least, I am shocked. I join the others in saying how sorry I am to see what has happened to you. It's good to hear that no one was injured, but I'm sure there's pain in the thoughts of what happened. Best of luck in rebuilding everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterp Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Truly heartbreaking. This isn't much of a silver lining, but at least it made it to the magazine before everything was lost. Very sorry, I hope that you are back on your feet asap. - Mr. P. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlkSSnCpt Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 yeah this f*cking sucks to hear , i got a call from Dave on saturday about this and i was in total shock. Mark has posted on pt.net a little since he's doing fine, he his family and there pets all got out safely. the truck was not the cause of the fire he learned that an extention cord cause a spark which eventually caused the fire but Mark being the true truck and modding addict that he is he jumped in the truck and tried to pull it out while the garage was on fire(crazy right ) but he said the heat was unbearable and he had to get out. he will be getting situated in the next couple of days and will be checking in as he can over on pt.net but once again this is truely a lost to the truck community, his Denali was such a sick truck which never saw it's potential on full boost. Mark is already thinking of his next project but is stil trying to get everything back in order. -Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
