Makes you kind of wish he just stayed on, I know everyone has their time but damn.. the more I think about it the more it hits me. I know we laugh, joke and argue on here but you never want to see any real harm come to those people. Its just a messed up situation.

thank you to everyone for their thoughts. We do hope that everyone keeps him in their prayers even if they never met him. Elliot was suppose to go to the reserves for bootcamp on the 4th and then head over to Iran. He was really excited about his new future, and he was alway's thinking and talking about the future. As some of you may know elliot was trying to sell his car before he left for camp and buy an evo. We would like to be able to get a evo key for him if possible, so if anyone has any info about getting please pm me or any of the xlr8shen member. He was like a brother to all of us and will be missed and will be remembered. Least I will know that he's up there watching my back at all times now...

Last night at approximately 5pm, the XLR8SHEN car club suffered a great loss. Elliot Sloan was involved in an unfortunate fatal accident. He left behind a loving younger brother, caring mother and father as well as many beloved friends and family.

Some of you may know him from browsing the forum, attending car shows and meets, and cruising around the streets. Elliot was committed to customizing his car in all aspects, while keeping it in immaculate condition at all times.

As Tuan stated above, Elliot planned to serve the nation in the U.S. Army Reserves early next month and to sell his Civic in exchange for a '06 EVO MR. After returning from the Army, he had aspirations to finish his bachelor's degree & MS/MD in Dentistry or possible entrepreneurship in the local area.

We appreciate your support, condolences, thoughts and prayers.

Elliot, rest in peace my friend, you will be missed.

I hate to say this but he died on impact so its better that way because he didnt have to suffer. He died with something he loved also, his car, so hopefully in his last seconds here, he was smiling.....

yeah man, I got the call from sony all the way in texas telling me what happend, i didnt belive it at first and thought it was a big joke so i called reggie and told him, he knew nothing about it and didnt belive it was him, it was unbeliveable, i could never imagine anything like this happening to us man....this is going to hit hard.

me and him were really cool for a minute and even though me and elliot had our differences in the end i still considered him apart of the family, when i heard what happened it really did hit me in the stomach, me and choy had to go through this shit with a good friend around this time years ago. we never really got the chance to talk it out and i feel horrible it had to end this way, I would never wish death on anyone and i wish the best to his family and all of his friends...This really does give me the funniest feeling in my stomach....

I just wish we couldve worked things out man, I will never again in my life hold a grudge over some petty shit. R.I.P

If thats how it happened thats kinda of a crazy case.. The state of Ga if your makin a left hand turn.. usually your at fault.. but if the guy in the suv for sure ran the red light it was definatly his fault.. I just wonder if they would try and place blame on both parties for that....

It will be interesting. If the guy ran the redlight, he is at fault. No doubt about that. He would have to be travelling VERY fast in order to kill someone in a car with a t-bone hit on the passenger side. I wonder if Elliot was wearing his seatbelt?

Below is the press release the Gwinnett County Police Department just sent the media:

(Monday 04/24/06 @ approximately 04:59PM) Investigators with the Accident Investigation Unit of the Gwinnett County Police Department are currently investigating a motor vehicle fatality. This occurred at the intersection of Steve Reynolds Boulevard and Venture Drive, which is in the Duluth area of Gwinnett County.

Preliminary investigation indicates that a ’99 Honda Civic was traveling eastbound on Steve Reynolds Boulevard, and a ’01 Ford Explorer was traveling southbound on Venture Drive. A witness stated that the Honda Civic disobeyed the red light, and traveled through the intersection, colliding with the Ford. Both drivers were transported to Gwinnett Medical Center.

The driver of the Honda has been identified as 21-year-old Elliot Kingsley Sloan of Norcross. The driver of the Ford has been identified as 28-year-old Nathaniel P. Patterson IV. Sloan passed away at GMC as a result from the injuries he received in the collision. Mr. Patterson has since been discharged from the hospital.

Patterson is cooperating with investigators. At this time, there is no indication that drugs/alcohol were factors in this collision. Both drivers were wearing their seat belts. The investigation continues.

Damn, I cant even believe what Im reading. Elliot was the most careful driver I have ever seen. It still hasnt really sunk in for me yet that he is gone. Thanks to everyone for the kind words and for keeping him and his family in your prayers. He was such a good friend and I know his loss is going to be really hard on the team so make sure you keep us in your prayers also. You guys are like family and Im here for you if you need absolutely anything. R.I.P. Elliot, we'll miss you homie.

according to the report that was posted (atleast the way I'm understanding it). The explorer had a green light, so was probably going at speed (whatever speed it is on that road, 45mph I'm guessing), and the Civic pulled out into the intersection, according to the witness.

I completey agree with Tuan (numba1 sti) on this. Elliot would of never ran a red light. The witness has to have this shit backwards. Elliot was the most careful driver out there. Like Tuan said, Elliot would not just run a red light like that, and if it did happen, how in the hell could the Explorer of gotten enough speed to have hit and killed someone, IF the explorer himself was stopped at a light?Elliot didn't deserve this shit :(

04-25-2006, 07:05 PM
reynolds and Venture, thats where the Sports authority and shit is right...
Hrm There is a turning light there right?
The wierd thing is how can one light be green and the other red... I always figured at that place the lights in both directions are linked... ( i remember, because they take forever)
Maybe they said he ran a turning light (when its gone, but the light is still green) .. but wouldn't it still be his right of way, if he's in the middle of the intersection...

Actually, if the light is green, the Explorer is already up to speed. All it would take would be for someone to pull out in front of him...

Police said Elliott Kingsley Sloan, 21, of Norcross, was driving his 1999 Honda Civic east on Steve Reynolds Boulevard.

A witness said Sloan ran through a stoplight at the intersection, according to police spokesman Cpl. Darren Moloney. The Honda then collided with a 2001 Ford Explorer traveling south on Venture Drive. The Explorer was driven by Nathaniel P. Patterson IV, 28, of Stone Mountain.

Sloan and Patterson were taken to Gwinnett Medical Center, where Sloan died from his injuries, Moloney said. Patterson was discharged from the hospital.

In Lawrenceville, an unidentified homeless man was struck by a car and killed as he tried to cross Ga. 20 (Buford Drive) near Ga. 316 at 9:15 p.m.

Ga. 20 is four lanes plus a center turn lane at that portion of the road.

Lawrenceville authorities said a teenager in a gray Honda Civic apparently struck the man. Low visibility may have been a factor.

The driver's name was not available Tuesday.

Whats with the homeless guy story? (silver civic and grey civic in the same day) Maybe he ran over that homeless guy, then was hawling through traffic to get home/away, like some one else said "he was swerving through traffic", ran a red light and hit a car. Im just saying, it's kind of weird that a grey civic hit and killed a homeless man, as the silver civic runs the red light "which he would never do". Just kind of strange to me, but either way, RIP man.

if you would have read more you would have seen it was a grey hatch back, elliot drove a coupe.

if you have nothing nice to say about this you can just get the fuck out, please dont come in here and start shit you know nothing about, get your facts straight.

as far as the swerving in and out of traffic, that person also said he had a JDM tag on the front. elliot did not have one. believe none of what you hear and only half of what you see.

The funeral is in NC. thats all I know.
