We met someone from New England area at a car show in New Smyrna Beach about a month ago who was involved in racing and we asked him if he knew Boston Bob and of course, he did. Many stories were told in the next 15 minutes.
We met Boston Bob in Trenton at a motel during the Langhorne days. Would always bump into him from Oswego to Daytona. After moving to Florida from N.Y. we would always manage to bump into him. One time at East Bay, during the World of Outlaws we met him. He had talked a couple of guys from Daytona into going to East Bay by telling them it was just a little past Orlando.
He always managed to get around without a license, one way or another.
I also had the opportunity of working on the restoration of his Dad's midget race car. His Dad was a great driver in his day.
R.I.P. Boston Bob!!
