The RC world has lost one of it's best. He was absolutely the nicest RC "bigwig" I ever had the pleasure of meeting at big races. The industry could use some more people like him. RIP Mike.

I got the news of this on the Phone from one of my friends in cali this Morning. It really sucks as Mike was a very great and dear friend and really helped me out many times for countless hours when I was getting started in Touring. He will be greatly missed and he was a very down to earth Genuine person who loved the Hobby as well as his friends.

God Speed Mike, God needed a great motor for his RC track in heaven.

A true motor legend. I met him in Tuscon many years ago at an event. He was really a nice guy, took time out of his busy day to speak with us a while....RIP

Wow, how time flies. I met Mr. Reedy way back in the late 80s when I raced off road. He was very helpful and kind to me that day.

My condolences go out to his family and friends.

Godspeed.

RIP Mike. His contributions still affect us all today. Hopefully there will be another that can fill his shoes in the future.
