    We should pause a moment to remember that it was five years ago today that FChatters Jens Haller and Amar Inam died in a crash at the Nurburgring. They are not forgotten. The tagline that Jens attached to each of his posts was a real touch of class. It was a very sad day here, even for those of us who had never met them. A great loss.

    that was a truly horrific day, as the f-chat euro section guys pieced together, and then confirmed, that they had lost two of their brothers at the Ring.

    Rest in Peace, Jens and Amar

    It's been 5 years? It certainly doesn't feel that long ago.

    RIP Jens and Amar

    I agree, it doesn't feel like it's been five years. May they both rest in peace. Con Saluti Cordialissimi.

    It's surprising that its been five years and unsurprising that those of us touched by them still remember them fondly.

    I remember that well. It is hard to believe that it has been that long. I'll always remember Jens tagline, one of those things that sticks with you.

    On another note, I hope that when it's my turn to go, I'm doing something I love.

    RIP.

    That was a little before my time, but it's sad to hear of the loss of any Fchatters.

    I just looked on the old Fchat. The thread where the event is being organized is still there.

    I Joined F-Chat months after this sad event happened but got to know some people who knew them well afterwards.
    Surely they are not forgotten!
