Just heard of the passing of Bubby Jones. Ol Bub was a legend of a driver, and had devoted his life to racing. One of the drivers who cut his teeth in sprint cars, and actually made an Indy 500 start. Tracks all around the country will forever feel a little more empty without him hiding somewhere analyzing the track. My heart goes out to @mrs.a.grant and @justin_grant_racing i know how much you will miss him, but if I may offer a small reminder, just think about the great times, and know he is proud of you. I know he passed down a lot of knowledge to JG, and a lot of love to Ashley and their wonderful children. Keep this family, and everyone close to bub in your thoughts, the world lost a great man, and a family lost a loving father, grandfather, and friend.
