Has anyone done any research on Ted Christopher. Just doing the basic searches I can find nothing about his personal life. The articles don't mention where he is from in CT. Wiki page only lists racing accomplishments. The only obituary I found was, again, a recap of his racing.
Even the articles about the plane crash are vague in that it doesn't state the 81yo was actually piloting the plane. What gives here?
I haven't had time yet. I am popping on and off voat while working on a bunch of house projects. I am planning to dig more into this post more tonight.
Good deal. I did little more digging this morning. A FB with a blank profile pic appears to be his.not much there. I did find an article about his relationship mentoring Keith Rocco, another known Mod driver from the that area. In that article, Rocco mentioned Christopher's shop in Plainville, CT. That video I edited my other comment to include, that happened on 9/11/17 in none other than PLAINVILLE, CT.
Another crash back in July in Plainville killed the pilot, James Seaver, who had a warrant sworn for his arrest the day before the crash, for raping a girl 2 yrs prior who was 12 at the time.
I can't post links right now but I hope to this evening.
Also, the name Rocco jumps out because a Rocco was one of the other auction bidders with Bemer for the Speed bowl racetrack.
