Dislike telling of the passing on the death of Reds Yost numbers 66-P and 166-P. Racing from 1951 until 1977. Rich Crafts to Sid-Crafts to Speedliners and back to a Rich Craft when he won the 1976 Nationals at Hinton. AU, BU and he even had Charlie Bachelor's DU for a year. Also breaking a number of Kilo records, in the Sid against such others as Craig Dewald and Bob Hering at Beloit, WI. 1960.
He spent a short time in a hospital with advance cancer of throat and bone.
He was one the most interesting man I have ever know. We would share how to make a Mercury 'Mark'-H engine faster. We shared interest in car, motorcycle and anything motorized or mechanical. We drove to the Indy 500 when Bobby Rahal won and went to Reading (PA) for dirt track racing.
Until a week before his hospitalization, we would call each other and converse about the car race on TV was good or bad as far as a broad cast and if the race even good.
I have lost a good friend. For the few left who raced against him or know him, let us remember those times.
