Please drive/bring your VW in a showing of support for Hector and his life.
The truly sad part was this celebration was already planned to celebrate Hector's 48th Birthday.
We will be gathering at Hector's favorite pit spot, at the finish line.

Just a bump to remind everyone of the tribute this Thursday -- There will be a Giant BBQ at Hector's pit so bring a little something for everybody to share.
If you'd care to -- bring a candle to light and hold when they tow Hector's car down the strip

Never met the man, but was inspired by his accomplishments. I'd be there if I could.
Hope the turnout represents. Best wishes, TxT

Just Got Back from Hectors Memorial..... I gotta say there was a massive gathering of family and friends ...I was really impressed with mass of Friends he had touched in his "way to short life"... !!!!....there was food "Non Stop " I didn't know Hector in a personal way but had talked to him a few times ...I just wished I could have talked some more to the man that brought So many people together to celebrate his friendship and also his passing !...overall it was a beautiful gathering and A perfect evening ...I just kept'ed on thinking what a loss this has been for so many people ....I will miss seeing Hector and his lightning fast runs which was one of the highlights of going to all the events that gave us the chance to see him run ....!! I will never forget hearing the phrase so many people were talking about today that Hector was know to say and even had it on his licences plate frame............. " DON"T TALK" " JUST BRING IT "
RIP Hector

Very well put and I completely agree with your post, Kaferdog. Just walked in the door from that event, as well. VERY impressive amount of people that came out to pay their respects.
Rest in peace, Hector.

I want to thank everyone for showing up and supporting the Urias Family -- I also want to thank the winner of the 50/50 raffle for NOT claiming their half of the raffle and letting the full $3100 go to Hector's wife and daughter
