  • RIP Joe Wilson

    Joe Wilson of Joe Wilson Race Cars died last Friday. Many people in the north Texas racing scene knew him. He shared the same building as Kim Barr for years before moving on to another location.

    I got a call today telling me that Joe went through a nasty divorce 2 years ago and immediately went into the bottle real hard. So last Friday he drives his explorer to the top of the high 5 (635 & 75), turns on his hazzard lights, pops the hood and then throws a note in the front seat and pretended that he was on the Titanic.

    Fucking horrible way to go. Never had a woman fuck me up that bad. I guess with alcohol involved, it'll make you do dumb shit. Joe was a real cool dude and was truly a good person. He didn't have the best business ethics at certain times in his career but that doesn't make you a bad guy.

    RIP Joe
    No longer in the parts industry !!

        Wow that's fucked up. I have dealt with Joe many times over the years and he was always cool to me.
        Sucks to think that is the only way out.

              I assume he died on impact? Did he jump into traffic?

                No, he was found in the grass. Joe wasn't the type to bring others into his pain.

                      Not in the racing game anymore. Kevin told me when he called yesterday. He knows that Joe, Kim and I used to talk a bunch. It's fucking sad to say the least. We've lost a lot of good dudes over the years. Nick, Ubil, Ballew and countless others.

                          I just found out the sad news about my old friend Joey Bob. I am in shock and pain. With tears in my eyes and a broken heart I bid you fairwell. You will always be the "Best Man" brother. Thanks for all the great times we had going racing, to the boat or just hanging. I love you Brother. Richard

                              Why not aim for the pavement? ?
