Its hard to imagine the sport without him. Maybe he will take the wing off another time or two before he retires. That would be a real treat!!

One of, if not the, best ever to sit in a sprint car. Right up there with his Dad, Dick Gaines, and all the other great drivers over the years.

Normally don't attend the WoO race at TSS, but I will this year. I saw Steve when he began his career, so it is only fitting that I attend his final season. Amazing that he has been so competitive for so many years.

He has run the Chili bowl and he is the GOAT and he is my favorite driver.(I have had 2 family members who have won a lot of races). I will never forget the battles he and Sammy had.

When I told Josh all he could say was " Its a sad day" I would have to agree.

Thank you Steve for all the memories.

The pictures of his shoulders hanging out of the cage were great.
