Kyle Seipel passes .....

MR DERBY CITY · 06-22-2021, 01:05 PM

Just received word that Kyle Seipel has passed away after a tough fought battle with cancer. I never met the man but he was a true inspiration to everyone. Left to cherish his memory are his loving wife , son and daughter. Kyle left quite a mark on the racing world. ......GODSPEED ......

My thoughts and prayers for Kyle's family. He was a great racer and friend to many
of us through the years. A monumental loss for the sport and bigger loss to his friends.
Goodspeed

Truly sad news, for all who kept in touch and tried to send encouragement we knew this day could come, yet it did little to lessen the severity of this blow, when the news spread this morning. I was and will always be touched and amazed by Kyle’s warmth and inherent kindness, something I was a benefactor of on numerous occasions.

For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die.

Let the record show that our Buddy’s final time slip started with a bag of donuts and ended with a perfect dead on package!

GODSPEED Kyle!

NHRA let’s turn Sonoma into a celebration worthy of Kyle’s spirit and that infectious smile…

Oh no...... Always had fun joking and racing with Kyle. No doubt, a real hard working guy. Paid his dues in spades. Time to buy a new helmet as his will go on the display shelf now. RIP Kyle.
