Just caught this news on RRW.
Road racer Blake Young's father, Steve, died in a car accident Saturday night on the way home to Madison, WI.
God speed Steve..............
This is terrible news.
Steve was a good guy. Our thoughts and prayers are with
Blake and his family.

Nuts! That blows...
Gordy, do you have any details, possibly on the services?
RIP
Godspeed Steve, and condolences to the Blake family.
No info on services or anything as yet. If I find out I'll post it as soon as possible.

As I understand, a friend of Blake's was in the car with him and he is in serious condition. I don't know who that friend is though. Blake stayed back at DuQuoin for more races on Sunday so he was not in the vehicle at the time of the crash.
RRW has the location and the times, Gordy.
