Bobby Allison was a titan of our sport and someone that I considered to be both a mentor and a great friend.
As I was growing up racing in series like USAC, ARTGO, ASA and NASCAR, Bobby always went out of his way to help me. He taught me so much and I wouldn’t have achieved what I did without his help.
I’ll really miss him a lot and I’d like to offer my condolences to the entire Allison family.
The NASCAR family mourns the loss of Bobby Allison, who passed away peacefully at home today at the age of 86.
