I sure am gonna miss watching Coleman run. Always a threat on the high side. Watching he and Clayton run the cushion at Pontoon Beach last October made my weekend. Best wishes in all you do CG.

Has to be one of the hardest decisions a father and son have ever made, considering all the factors that went into it.
I respect you for making such a hard decision, and sticking to it. I am certain it was not easy.
Here is a tribute to you and your family.

Could see he had talent when he raced Mini sprints for AMSA when he was younger. Very nice family to work with.

Glad I had the chance to meet the Gulick Clan and watch Coleman race silver crown and sprint cars. Wish you all the best in whatever lies ahead for all of you; most of all Coleman. Will miss seeing him behind the wheel of a race car. Maybe Coleman should turn his attention towards racing a supermodified at the Big O, I know he would be good at it. An it sure would be closer to home for all of you. Hope our paths cross again in the future.

Best Wishes,

Patti

Hi Pete, My brother told me about Coleman after he seen him run at Tuscon about three years ago, we've been fans ever since. I sat behind your family at Terre Haute a while back and watched one of Coleman's grandmothers, she would NOT open her eyes while Coleman was on the track, I would be the same if it was my grandson but it was funny anyway. I am glad he escaped unharmed. Best of luck

Speaking as one parent to another, I say bless you and yours.

I pray that you all continue down life's, sometimes merry and other times tricky, road with a determined smile.

We only were able to chat once, but I appreciated that time. You are both parents who love your children. Lord knows we need more of that.

I don't know what to say except the positives.
I met good people (Except never met Coleman)
Seen damn good racing that at times rivaled the best of the best in the state.
Will retain mostly good memories.

Take care Gulick Family!

Pete,

As previously stated, I too am one of the many that will read this & though having never met, feel genuine remorse for the news. As the parent of a teenager myself, you have my upmost respect. It's not easy and the way you've conducted yourself is to be commended.

As for the Iceman, I will always be a fan. No matter what. BC might get the press for winning Smackdown but what I'll always remember is Coleman on a mission running the top. Worth the price of admission by himself.

Best wishes to the whole family. You're already missed.
