About 7:15 p.m. on Oct 15th, a 19-year-old man, whose identity hasn't been released, was racing 36-year-old Fernando Aviles of Las Vegas, who was driving a 1981 red Mazda RX7, police said. The victim lost control of his brown 1983 Mazda RX7 and it spun clockwise and slid under a UPS stepvan driven by Robert Ryder, 38. Ryder suffered minor injuries.

The dead man's 18-year-old passenger, Carla Talavera of Las Vegas, was taken to University Medical Center with serious injuries and was still being treated this morning, authorities said.

-------------------------------------
Fernando was the fella that was in business with Harry before the whole RoToy thing fell apart. I think Harry was smart to get away from Fernando when he did...

They hadn't even talked since RoToy desolved, so much that they were both at SevenStock6 and didn't even know the other was there.

I haven't found out who the other drag racer was, I think I know the car (question is who was it sold to)
