RIP: My friend Sae Kang from Finishline Motorsports

Ncturnal · 09-29-2006, 06:18 PM

I have no details on how it happened other than he had difficulty breathing this morning. He was a really good friend of mine and was always larger than life. It's certainly tragic for something like this to happen at 32 years old, especially someone who was in such good health.

We have been friends for about 8 years now and did a lot of motorcycle riding and car events together. I never been to a car event in which he didn't know everyone there. He's helped me a lot with my cars and motorcycles over the years and my silver car has made it's home in his showroom for several months now. He was a very good friend that I will miss having around. RIP Yellaboy.

Ah man,
Sorry to hear the bad news, Brian. I've been lucky enough to never have lost a close friend, I can't imagine how it feels.
My condolences to you, his friends, and family.
Let me know if you need anything.

My heart goes out to you!

Mister2.2 · 09-29-2006, 11:24 PM

As I said before Brian, I'm sorry to hear this. I did not know him but I know if he was your friend he was a good guy, always hurts to lose one of those. If there's anything I can do just ask.

R.I.P. Sae

gobluetwo · 09-30-2006, 01:24 AM

damn dude!!! when did this happen? sae and i were really good friends growing up. i still remember taking my gi joes and transformers over to his house to play when i was no older than 7 or 8. he really was like my older brother, from the times he tried to teach me to skateboard to all the sleepovers we had. hard to believe that i had known him about 25 years.

brian, i saw i missed a call from you earlier. i'm actually out of town right now and have been indisposed all evening (family stuff). i'll give you a call in the morning - hopefully you'll be able to talk.

rest in peace, bro...

Ncturnal · 09-30-2006, 01:38 AM

Sounds good man. I just got home from hanging out with a lot of his friends. It's sad, but we had some good laughs reciting some of our memories of him. Visitation will be tomorrow and the service and funeral will take place on Sunday. Call me if you need any additional info.

ck2002 · 09-30-2006, 01:50 AM

oh man , so this is the guy i met at TIGER RACING's place a few times., and someone just gave me his phone # last week coz im planning to do some work on my car.damn missed another chance to know good pple.

Claudio RX-7 · 09-30-2006, 02:29 AM

I cant believe this has happened! I only knew say for a very short time, and we shared even less time together, but in the time i knew him i saw he was a larger than life kinda guy. Its very hard to understand and accept how can things like this happen to good peolpe, when there are so many out there with so very little restpect for everybody else. Sae, you will be sorely missed.

My most sincere condolences to his family.

ALLSHOTUP · 09-30-2006, 02:55 AM

Brain,

I'm very sorry for your loss. I just lost a very close friend about 5 weeks ago . It is tough but keep in mind the good times that you had as your friend would not want you to be sad over their passing. Celebrate their life as much as possible.

Sincerely,
Eric

When people mourning over somebody can have goods laughs reciting memories it shows that that person was well loved. Someone pleasant to be with.
I had the same when my beloved brother died. Not everybody understands it, but it's a good way to deal with your grieve.

Sae Kang must have been a good person.
He died young, but from what I read he had many friends. These friends must have made his life worthwhile.

My condolences to all his family and friends.
I wish you lots of strength.
