how did Matt Bartosek die?????

 

flying, is this july of next year??? I am definitely going to go......

atkins, Jeremiah Jones and Matt Bartsek was racing each other, either Jones ran him over with his quad or Bartosek ran along side of him, dont remember exactly, but it took place in florida this past janurary at the Winter ATV Olympics in Gainesville, FL.

 

Jesus! Jeremiah killed him? thats gotta haunt you for the rest of your life. I think thats prob. the first ATV racing related death ive ever heard of. What calss did he race?, what did he race?

 

Matt died pushing for #1
I know his brother is a forum member....
Just like to say I'm sorry for your families loss...
God Bless Matt.

Fom what I hear Matt was a great racer, who died doing what he loved best. Gob bless, and Im sorry for your family's loss.

 

Jones did nothing to Matt!!! Whoever told you that is one class-A jerk!!!!!!!!!
I'm sorry,,I now see that it was Zhvonte thats the jerk. Dude,,get a grip! To say such a thing,that is sooo incorrect is painful for me to read,let alone the thoughts of how bad Jones did feel about the whole thing.
Jones was in front. How in the hell could he have ran him over?!
I was there,you obvoiusly wasnt. I seen him wreck and die,,you obviously didnt.
Shup foo.
