Tony Jones is and was a remarkable racer. Scott D. has called Tony "the most popular driver at Perris" and there is no question about his statement. After each race he is surrounded by adults and small children seeking his attention. Without hesitation he fields all questions, patiently listens to each one of his supporters, gladly submits to each and every photo opportunity and represents the sport, he no doubt loves, with the very best of them. He is the last to leave each Saturday night after numerous autograph requests. It is a sad day when one of your heroes finally hangs it up. Tony has provided us with so much excitement over the last few years it is almost impossible to imagine a racing year without him and the Silver Alexander #4 sprinter that he handled so well. Best of luck to him as he will be surely missed in California.
Scott Daloisio on any Saturday night: "And here comes JONES!"
