Not to make this day any worse with the loss of great racers, but we have lost another great racer and one of my best friends today. God Speed Lloyd.

Paul, I didn't know very well Lloyd, but we sure enjoyed talking to him at the West coast events we ran. We spent a long time talking to him in the staging lanes at Vegas last month before Pomona. He was a great and interesting guy. Sounded like things were going well for him in Vegas. We knew he was sick, that's why he moved west and south, but this is very unexpected. We are so sorry for your loss and we will sure miss racing with him.
Beth, Alex & Tony |

Indeed sorry to hear of Lloyd's passing. Had the chance to talk with him a bunch when he was racing here in the northeast. As Beth said, very interesting fellow!
Prayers and condolences to his family and friends. Zane Racing

I am really shocked to read this. I did not know Lloyd was sick. He was from my area and raced at my local track for many years.
I bought a Stocker from him in 1996....a '69 Nova He bought a Stocker from me in 2007....my LT-1 Firebird He had various businesses..... He had some nice cars and a lot of Class win Wally's at his garage in NJ..... His V6 Buick Stocker won most of them.... I saw his name on recent race results from just last week out at Las Vegas... He was a fairly young man so this is a real shock to me... My condolences to Lloyd's friends and family.....

So sorry to hear this. When we first started racing Lloyd was one of the first guys that I met. Such a great guy. He will be missed.

as is everyone, shocked to hear. Last spoke to him 2 weeks ago.
Made a few calls minutes ago to some of Lloyd's close friends to fill in the blanks. The info I got is 3rd hand but his cause of death is most likely heart related. RIP Lloyd |
