Rest In Peace! Godspeed!!!

The following link will take you to an article written by a local newspaper in Auburn, Washington about Bill the same week of the Schucks Auto Supply NHRA Nationals held at Pacific Raceways.

The Schucks Auto Supply NHRA Nationals was Bill's last race. I will post more information about any memorial or related activities when available.
