My most heartfelt condolences to his family and all his friends, which he had many. Very difficult to accept
that Doug's not with us anymore. GOD SPEED DOUG !

I am sorry that my original post seemed to be somewhat lite hearted, but from reading the results posted on DRC it didn't seem to be a very serious accident.

The accidents that have claimed the lives of different professional racers lately are always touching, but when it now happens to a .90 racer doing what all of us on this forum do and love, that really hits close to home.

Those of you that know Doug and his family personally seem to have been truly blessed.

I still cannot believe this happened. It did not look that bad but it was. Just as everyone else said, what a great guy. Everytime I have ever raced in D3 or was at the same race, Doug was always happy to see me and ask how I was doing. No matter what, he had a huge smile and hello, and that meant a lot to me. We talked in the lanes yesterday and he was happy to be going some rounds. Last night was a long-long ride home and I shed some tears. I will miss him.

From the whole Northrop family, RIP Doug, and I send condolences to his family.

Dan

I flew out early yesterday to come home to a message about this terrible news. I have witnessed Doug's smiling face and caring personality at the track for as long as I can remember. Just this weekend I saw that smile every time he drove past my trailer on his way to the staging lanes. That smile was accompanied by a friendly wave. My thoughts go out to Doug's family during this difficult time.

Our Condolences to the McRobie Family. I didn't know Doug personally, but I have seen the car and the McRobie name at every race and know exactly which one it is. Anyone that is on the road with the rest of us .90 racers is part of the family as far as I am concerned, and losing a family member really hurts. If there is anything the rest of us can do to help the family in this time of need, just let us know. May god be with you always,

Ron. Meridee, Nick Finney

We haven't been racing much lately but when we did the McRobies were always so very nice to be around. To his family from ours we are thinking of you.

GODSPEED DOUG!

When something like this happens, it effects us all. We spend our weekends together like a weekend family reiunion. Our thoughts and prayers go to friends and family of Doug, he will be missed. If there is a fund we can give to or a favorite charity, please let us know.

The Schmidt Family
