Ross Froud died on Sunday morning. He was just 14 years old! Ross was the youngest of our GTD 40s car club members, and with his father Phil owned a red GTD. Together they had spent the last year developing the car, and Ross had spent a lot of time with his father working on his dream car. Ross had lived with the knowledge of his cancer for 8 years, yet his enthusiasm never wained, and those that gave him rides last year at our Goodwood track day will not forget that enthusiasm. I am sure the club will miss him, and I am glad to have known him. |

My condolences to all the family for this sad news.
I hope to meet Phil with his car at Goodwood this summer as my son also is a enthousiastic GT40 fan.

He obviously has very loving parents who were determined to get as much into his short life as possible.
Condolences from Pam and myself.
