These guys look like that group of guys that are there to race...but fun and the memories/good time is what really matters to them. They are those guys that no matter what happens, at the end of the day they are having FUN.
Such a terrible thing that this stuff happens to guys so young, but this is life. Maybe he was so fun loving because his life was going to be short, the good ones always go young
God bless the family, im sure this is a HUGE loss for them , as well as for his close friends . Seems like he touched everyones life in a positive way, wether in person, or even just on here
Race In Peace my friend I never met in person !

RIP and Godspeed Billy! You will be missed. He is in a better place and pain free now. I am sure he has all who will listen gathered around to listen too his musings of one of his racing adventures. You will be missed my friend!

I heard thw news last night on FB, so sorry to hear he passed, I got to meet him once in person at Woodley Park here in Cali, I saw the DW shirt, and thought it was him, I walked up and said Moparbilly?, he smiled and said yes, and we chatted for a few minutes, great guy. He will be missed by many, along with his stories of Drag Week, the behind the scenes information and insight. Rest in peace Billy.

Rest in peace Billy. I'll always remember how is welcomed all of us to come up and 'bug' him during drag week (though it didn't take much to get him talking!) With his memory he always remembered that my dad had passed and that I had lost my trunk monkey and was super kind to me.

Sorry to hear this. Saw him and his family a couple of times during the drag week but never got to talk with him. Seemed like a very important person for the community.
