Johnny Langton 1975-2011

I apologize if this type of thread is not allowed, but I just wanted to pay my respects to Johnny Langton who passed away yesterday afternoon. An avid Ford car and truck enthusiast, and a friend of mine who inspired me to try to make my car as fast as his. RIP.

Damn shame, he was an asset on every Ford site I saw him on.

I see it happened in front of a Ford dealer, quite ironic.

Wow...

Johnny and I have had numerous conversations on FTE over the last 3 or 4 years, and he was clearly one of the most knowledgeable people on here regarding the Modular engines. I considered him a friend, and news of this really hits hard for me.

Prayers are going out to his family...rest in peace, Johnny.

Man I hate to hear that. He was truly one of the most knowledgeable people I ever had the privilege of knowing, even if only online. Terrible news to end 2011 on. RIP...
