I just received word that Division one racer Johnny Williams has passed. He raced Oldsmobiles his whole life, and was a former division champ.

God Speed my friend.

I heard the same thing. He never told anyone, even his family that he was sick. Rest in peace Johnny "Cajun Nightmare" Williams.

Johnny was a tough and committed racer. Condolences to family and friends.

That is so sad to hear. There was a person that always had a smile on his face and a great laugh to go along with it. He will be missed........... RIP my friend

Sad day indeed. Fellow Olds racer. I had the pleasure of meeting him years back at Joliet. He was too young to leave us.

May the 'Cajun Nightmare" Rest in Peace!

One of the greatest guys I've met racing Stock.
Allways a great time talking and joking.
Johnny did not want anyone to know how sick he was, found out about it from his good freind and Olds racer he brought along. Was asked to keep it to myself as Johnny did not want to talk about it, did not want sympathy just have fun at the track.

Spoke to him at the Dutch last fall, met his wife and son. Johnny offered to help me in teardown.

This is not supposed to happen to good people!

My condolences the Williams Family: Johnny's Wife and Son especially, his friends and family for the great loss.
