How incredibly sad! Although I never met Chris, I always found his posts to be insightful and never boring. I often wondered what he would be up to next. I guess now we'll never know!

My heartfelt condolences to the Wertman Family. G-d is looking out for Chris now.

Completely shocking...Godspeed Chris and condolences to Mandie and the Wertman family.

Wow. I am shocked and saddened. I never got to meet him but I found his numerous posts entertaining and discerning. My sincere condolences to his family.

Some people are never fully appreciated until they are taken from our lives. The Drooze offered much to be appreciated. The devastation of losing him will be greatly felt amongst the class racing community with his wit, insight, and all around good guy nature.

RIP C.W.

You will be greatly missed by many.

Chris's passing is a huge loss to this site, and to drag racing overall. His great spirit will always be unforgettable to me.....I've never met anyone with a more positive attitude. Blessings to the Wertman Family and their many friends. He was one special guy........

Wow. R.I.P. Chris

Prayers and condolences to the family.

WOW! Horible news. Although I never met him I was following his Challenger build. What an awesome guy as he offered his services to our association and wasn't even in the South.

Brenda and I send our condolences to Chris' family. Chris unknowingly provided inspiration to all of us, even those who won't admit it. Inspiration can be in a positive/direct form or a reverse psychology type, in any case he did inspire me in both ways.
