The passing of Hank Blankenship

Sad news indeed. Hank was a truly nice person and gentleman. I will miss seeing him at the race track. My story of Hank was from this past year, I was attempting to leave the track and had pulled my motorhome onto the return road to exit. When I hit the pavement near the tech building I thought I heard something dragging but wasn't sure because I still had the generator running. Hank flagged me down and sure enough the exhaust pipe had fell off the generator. After some quick work rigging it up in the rain I was on my way but not before Hank told me, "He might start taking a better look at my car in the future." Godspeed Hank.
