Chris Mann, former TQ champion has passed away from his battle with cancer. He was one of the nicest guys you'll ever talk to. I was just walking around with him at PRI, and went with him to the Indy Invitational with him. Shared a lot of racing memories that night.

Rest in power Chris.

Very sad to hear of this. Chris always had a smile on his face.

May GOD bless you and your family.

RIP Chris

I'll raise one to him at Hartford tonight. Hate to see anyone have to fight that.

Raced with Chris for many years in TQs. You couldn't find a nicer guy to know or pit beside. I'm gonna miss my buddy.
