Great reflections by all of you. Rich was truly one of the greatest USAC racers of all time in my book. I am amazed that when racing enthusiasts talk about greats, his name is not always brought up. I was fortunate enough to see his evolution from a midget racer to contending for wins and winning a lot in every USAC discipline. Myself and my friends were unloading race cars at our shop from the nights events at the local racetrack when someone came in and broke the news. Devastating! RIP
