    Just wanted to say that Mark is still in our thoughts all the time. It's SO hard to believe that it has been a year since his tragic accident. He was ONE of a kind.

    To his family and friends, We are glad we knew him and all you guys.

    During my involvement in drag racing, attending a significant number of events, traveling this great country and competing against the best of the best in the Top Alcohol Dragster category, I have had the opportunity to meet a number of very special people. Without a doubt, Mark Niver was one of those special people. As a racer, a fabricator, and a true gentleman, he was the best.

    My thoughts and prayers are still, and always will be, with his family, his friends, and the rest of the racing community. It will never be the same, without Mark, and the Billet Bullet.

    Mark Niver

    Thank you guys so much. Yesterday was a tough day but we spent it together as a team and we had a nice Coors toast in his honor. We miss him and there isnt a second that goes by that he isnt on my heart. Reading how incredible everyone thought he was truly helps, as that is the way we all feel about him. Thanks again and everyone, please stay safe.

    Incredible to say the least

    Somehow when Mark gave you a nice Coors it tasted better than any other. When I think of Mark I just wish there were more people like him. How quickly time passes...

    Coors

    After giving him hell about his Coors Originals, he just told me, well, you ever notice only fat guys drink light beer?

    He will always be missed!

    Mark Niver

    To Mark's Family,
    Mike and I wish there were words to describe our emptiness of not getting to call Mark and just BS. As I have written he was our Mentor and friend for many years all the way back to Him and Gene.
    Every time we travel to the races theses days he comes up in our travel conversations.
    He helped us in so many ways with Parts, Friendship, Constructive Criticism, and many times asking WTH were we thinking. ;).
    When he got to run TF for Johnny we though wow he made the big time!

    He Never changed always had time for two punks trying to burn up everything we had to go fast and quick.
    Still run the tune up Mark and Mike came up with years ago.
    He is one with all our hero's in heaven!
    got to go cannot see screen any more.
