Saddened to hear this. Spoke with Vic end of year Vegas divisional and he just doesn't age! Always looked the same. Met Vic at Fremont early 70's bracket racing with Hammer and the guys. The racers Racer! Always ready to help you. Any news would be greatly appreciated. Prayers sent.

He is at a friends home as MJ said. He disconnected his phone service. I tried to go see him during the Fontana race and he really is not up to seeing anyone, like yourself I have known Vic for well over 30 years. If I hear anything different I will reach out.
