More than sorry to say we have lost Bill Pomponi

Dave Casey · 05-25-2016, 08:50 AM

Bill Pomponi, racer ,owner/crew chief, father, grandfather, and supporter of sportsman racing and the All Star Racing Association has passed away unexpectedly. Bill and his son Bill were racing with us this past Sunday. Bill was an endeared member of our racing family and a close personal friend of myself and many. The arrangements are not yet finalized. I will post the info as soon as it is available.

Our sincerest condolences to the Pomponi family. It was as much a pleasure, for me, to get to meet Bill over the recent years and have a face to the name, as it was for my father to re-connect and share some memories from years past. May he rest in peace.

Andy, Lorin and the DaRos family
