Tony would come down the The burg every now and then and I guess about 87 is when I started really watching him regularly following USAC with Staab running it full time in the sprints. Tony and House were running grey cars then.
What he did after that is self explanatory. In the last few years I've seen him at a bunch of different tracks mostly as just being a fan and hanging out with racing folk. But he still ran now and then. Was always on Facebook posing pics of the latest hauler to leave the lot. Football post and racing and boating. Dude lived life to the fullest.
R.I.P Tony Elliott. Nice man every time I met him!
