This is so unbelieveable that this has happened to such a great person.Jesse always walked around with a big smile on his face at the track because this is what he loved to do and that was race and put on a show for all the fans.And that he did! Jesse you be sadly missed by all your fans and all your racing buddies.All I can say it will be a sad day when we pull into the action track to race tomarrow night knowing you won't be here.RIP JESSE we will miss you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
