Dwight Shelton, 65 passed on Monday. He was a life long race fan, family friend and supporter. He had been battling cancer for some time.

That's real sad news. I had the pleasure of meeting Dwight and got to talk to him several times. He was a real gentleman (a genuinely nice guy) and definitely knew a lot about racing. R.I.P.

I too met Dwight through this site and then actually shook hands at Winchester. Later, he looked me up at the Chili Bowl. A good man, good fan.

I want to express my sadness at the loss of Dwight. May God bring your family peace, comfort and understanding.
I read Dwights obituary and it seems we lost another great fan as well as a caring family man. I pray these Words of Gods will help you.
I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness,
which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing.
