Great guy. He helped me even though, at the time, he didn't know me. I watched him every chance I got. It's shame he is gone so young. RIP Marky.

Mark built part of my stocker back in 09.
He was just a great guy all around & would lend a hand at the drop of a dime.
And Yes Ron he sure did love his Italian dinners !!

Godspeed Mark.

Mark had had some health problems the last few years which is why it made me especially happy that he got to be with his good friend Jeff Tripp when he won the open at Numidia earlier this year. He truly loved our sport and was such a wealth of knowledge. I always felt honored when he stopped by my trailer and was always thankful for all his advice.
May he rest in peace. Roy Kinslow

Mark was a good racer that would help any one that asked. He once help me with my Camaro and came to my house in Ct to help straighten it out.
Mark will be missed.

There are givers and takers in life.... Marky definitely gave far more than he ever received. Helped many for the simple reason he had a passion for cars and loved helping people. A pretty simple guy summed up clearly by his nickname "The Voice of Reason". Finished as high as 8 in the world in SS when it really meant something......




Rest in peace Marky. Hopefully you're eating a big plate of spaghetti and meatballs, a cold drink and surrounded by all the great racers already up there. See you in the staging lanes on the other side......
