A fantastic television and radio motorsports personality whos passion and love for racing came across in his broadcast. I remember he got the opportunity to drive one of AJs roadsters around the track. He had tears in his eyes. Heal up Bob, we all love ya

When in doubt Gas It

Speedweek on ESPN back in the 80s and 90s. He and the late Larry Nuber were GIANTS in their field! I looked forward to it every week.

Wishing Bob all the best.

I read somewhere in the last few days the best way to describe Bob Jenkins. He was famous but you would never know that if you met him. Just a down to earth good guy. Praying that you win this fight Bob.

Loved when ESPN did Thursday night Thunder and then Saturday Night Thunder with Bob and Larry Nuber two guys who knew what they were talking about, unlike couple of the clowns at the Chili Bowl this year. Prayer to Bob and his family, As Mrs. G always told me when we found out I was sick Fight the good fight!!!

That is just sad to read. The other networks can only wish they had commentators as good as Bob Jenkins. I always remember "Thursday Night Thunder, coming Live from"
