An hour ago, we learned that our friend Jack Pitney at BMWNA has died in a tragic accident. Jack has been a supporter of BMWBLOG and helped us with our first live webcast from NYC Auto Show. Jack was a true BMW enthusiast and one of the most interesting people we have interviewed.
Full details are yet to come, but we would like to take a moment to express our condolences. Our heart goes with his family and friends.
This is a very sad for all of us and for anyone that knew him.
