Default Super Car world losses a great friend tonight..

I just got the news that my good friend Doug Olson lost his battle with cancer. He was 45. Doug was one of the best people that I ever met, that had an absolute love for the Super Cars in general. He had a COPO Camaro that he was working on and was planning on attending with his car one day. He had a vast amount of knowledge on the 427 cars. It was his passion. He was able to attend the Super Car reunion this year and had a great time. He will be greatly missed. He leaves behing a wife and 5 children. This is truly a sad day...BKH

Doug was a true enthusiast with a real passion for these cars. He was also a first rate person and a good friend. I will miss Doug a lot.
