What a Sad and Tragic Loss. I first met Jason at the Waimate Street Racing some years ago and we became friends with a passion for cars. What can I say such a great guy taken too soon. Love you Big Jase and will miss our laughs. Condolences to your family and friends.

It´s with utter disbelief hearing Jason has passed away. We have a long association with him and his business mostly due to his being an absolutely incredibly funny and genuine and kind and generous and honest hu-man being! Jason will be missed very much by all of our family who frequently visited his business, and I can imagine the terrible loss all who loved him will be feeling. RIP, beautiful Jason! Soar high!

We were shocked and saddened to hear of Jasons death just this morning. After all he has been through and the pain he has endured for years - we thought he was indestructible. Just not fair that having finally had his surgery and becoming pain free, he is taken far too young. A truly kind, generous and good hearted man that we have been privileged to know. Our sincere condolences to all of Jasons family. RIP.
