Thats terrible news.
Charles and I were pitted next to each other at Great Bend this year and when I had an exhaust valve seat come loose. He was all about helping me and pointing things out on my new combination that he liked or that I needed to change. He made the comment that he was only able to attend the 1st divisional race at Topeka, as he and his wife were going to I believe Scotland. We briefly talked in the lanes in Topeka when I went to watch stock. He will be missed. Rest In Peace my friend. Our condolences to his family. Sean and Rose

Terrible news. I didn't know Charles personally, but I looked forward to watching him at Indy every year. My condolences to his family.

Way too soon! Chuck was always a great guy! He knew how to punish those front driver turbo cars! I will certainly miss seeing him at the track. Race in Peace Chuck!

What sad news! I never met Mr. Blossom, but growing up in Minnesota meant I grew up watching him and his GMC Syclone, then the SRT4 Neon, then the PT Cruiser, then his new Drag Pak, which was a surprising one! RIP!

Sorry to hear this, Charles and Phil were great to hang out with at the track.
Lots of Mopar history and stories between those two! Rest in peace. Dennis Breeden |

That's terrible to hear. I've always loved his syclone and what he accomplished with the turbo cars.
