CJ Farrell passes …..

MR DERBY CITY · 10-17-2023, 10:25 PM

Longtime superstock and competition eliminator car owner Charles Joseph Farrell passed away Monday October 16 just outside of Louisville, Ky……CJ was 90 years old and was married to the Love of his life , Jeanne …for 57 years. I never missed an opportunity to stop in and visit with CJ and his son Mike at the races. I can still remember the day that a young, skinny Mike Farrell showed up at The Ohio Valley Raceway in the CJ Farrell and son SS/NA Chevelle wagon. Mike won numerous National events before moving on to Competition Eliminator ….prayers for Mike , his sisters, and the entire Farrell family ….Here’s to you CJ, …..GODSPEED !!!

Condolences to CJ’s family. I’ve known CJ and Mike for over 30 years, both would always be cordial and say hello. CJ was very nice to everyone. He will be missed at the races. RIP. Bobby and Nancy Rashid.

Buggs, very sorry to hear about Bob. I just read your post for CJ. I hope you are ok. Bob will be missed. He was not a drag racer. But he was the best entertainer. God bless Bob. Bobby and Nancy Rashid.
