It has been a long time since I've seen the Young brothers. I am very sorry to hear about Jim's passing. My prayers and thoughts are with the Young Family at this time.

The Young's are some of the best people in the sport. I run into Tom every now and then, and he, and Jim have always been gentlemen, both on and off the track. I met these guys back in the 70's, and I think about Jim all the time. I will never forget the day he came to 75-80 with that brand new 75 Dodge. I think it was in J/SA. He will be missed. God bless them, and their families.
