Well guys, received word that MF'er Blacksmoke (Matt Connally) passed away yesterday. He was known to be the paranoid one. Always worried about some noise his car was making!

It was what he wanted after years of battling the pain of cystic fibrosis. And after fighting all week with trying to breath, he requested to not be resuscitated.

Godspeed Matt, I hope somewhere you're doing burnouts and picking on the ricers. Love you brother.

RIP, Matt.

That sucks. RIP dude. I know he was **** about most everything but I liked reading his posts anyway because he usually had good stuff.

What a bummer. He was only a few months older than I am. Really makes you appreciate life to see that someone around the same age is no longer with us. He did have many good posts through the years. RIP

Diabolical!

Damn. He was truly one of the OG S197'ers of this forum...
