Just saw this in the tweets from Area Auto Racing News:

Kramer Williamson has passed away from injuries received last night in a URC Sprint Car crash at Lincoln Speedway. He died this afternoon.

I feel like throwing up. I never met Kramer and only saw him race a couple of times, but it was obvious he was well liked and respected by fans and fellow racers. My heart goes out to his family and friends.

I cannot believe what's gone on in the past 24 hours. Kramer was respected by everyone, and disliked by none. He was still very competitive this late into his career, and he will be greatly missed. Prayers going out to all the Williamson family.

Here's a shot I took of Kramer during Time Trials last night at Lincoln.

Sorry to hear about Kramer. This is the toughest year on open wheel racers I can remember in a long time. I hope the rest of the year goes a lot better. I'm getting tired of all this happening.

I never met Kramer, but he was one of us, a racer. So, most of us feel like we've lost a member of our family. I hate this part of our sport.
Prayers for him and his family.
He died doing what he loved and if I had a choice, that is the way I would choose to leave this earth.

Just heartbreaking. I can't count the number of time I've seen Kramer race and win. Seems he's been racing forever. Kids loved the Pink Panther race car and Kramer was a great ambassador for the sport. His passing hurts and will leave a really big hole in the sport.

Thoughts and Prayers to the Williamson family.

From a winning night at Hagerstown Speedway 2007.

KRAMER WILLIAMSON


CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA SPRINT TRACKS & OTHERS UNITE TO SALUTE KRAMER WILLIAMSON

In an unprecedented show of unity and in recognition of one of the area’s all-time great racing personalities, all four area Sprint Car auto racing facilities are combining for a weekend fund raising effort for the Kramer Williamson family.


Selinsgrove, Port Royal, Williams Grove and Lincoln Speedways will collect donations this coming weekend with all proceeds going to the Williamson family. In addition, Bruce Rogers and the Grandview Speedway will also conduct the collection for the Williamson family this Saturday night, August 10. The Delaware International Speedway will conduct its own fundraising activities at the next URC Sprint Car event scheduled for Saturday night, August 31.

Other race tracks are expected to participate and more information will be forthcoming.

This is an outstanding showing of how the racing community comes together and in this case, to the support the Williamson family.
