Raced with Clem in modified when I drove a friends car back in the seventies. That is when I got to know him, and still have talked to him regularly whenever we were at the same track. Great fellow, and fun to talk to. I never knew his age, but I would've guessed younger than 80. Never forget that grin he always had. I think I was at the Valley when Clem put the Maverick on it's roof one day, no problem, he fixed it.

Clem is one of the many reasons I enjoy this sport, great guy and will be missed
