Terry was a huge fixture in the midwest open wheel racing scene for a lot of years. He will be missed for sure. Pretty amazing that his passing was in the midst of leading a sprint car feature at Farmington

I just remember hearing they were related.


RIP Terry and condolences to his family and friends.

Sucks to see him go. Although I didn't know him much at all, he did come over to our trailer and talk to a few times at Montpelier. Which I thought was always cool, especially since we're a nobody dirt poor team. I was always a fan of his and even bigger fan after that.

Awesome story opnwhlmnd that was great. Sucks about the part of flipping, but at least you got a great story out of it. That sometimes makes the wrecks worth it.

Also it was nice to see that he got to lead his last A main. I know some of the drivers in that race posted later on facebook, no matter who won. Terry was the actual winner of that A main.
