    Mike Rieger - Friend, Driver, Co-Partner of SCR Perfomance.....

    Mike Rieger was 21 years old. On his way to work (SCR Performance) this morning he was involved in a fatal car accident right near the shop entrance. He passed away on contact. I will post later about when services will be held. But until then lets keep him and his family in our thoughts and prayers. Take care and drive safe.
    Johann M. Rieger will be remembered by all who knew him. Why do the greatest have to be taken away from us? I'll always miss you man. Your spirit will live on in each of us.

    he was such a great person I can remeber quite a few times that we all would meet up and go for a drive. Mike would talk for ever about cars he would always blow me away with how much he knew about stuff. He made sure he made it easy to be friends with everyone, such an easy going person. I wish I had my thoughs together cause I'm sure I could go on for ever about him. I'm still shaking while I type this just dosen't seem to be real, how could something so great be taken away so quickly...Mike you will be missed.

    Ty I couldn't have said it better, I am also still very shaken up. He was such a great friendly person who will be missed a lot! The whole BMW community will never be the same with out him.

    I got a few calls today. Im still in shock, mike used to sell me parts from the shop in the fort. Hanging out with him at pfi's dyno days. We have sort of lost touch since I sold the bmw.. Please post the services, its a sad day when old friends catch up at fellow friends funeral. I will be there, fuck class.

    Mike, you will be very missed.

    he will be missed. such a kind guy... always had a smile on his face. you'd just look at him and he would be smiling for no reason.

    my best time around Second Creek was with mike in Frank's car. he drove that beast like a champ.

    this is a big blow to the bmw community. mike contacted me to help me with my head gasket problem. even though it never went through, i wish i would have had the chance to have gotten to know him just cause he was such a nice guy.

    Rest in Peace
