Ok, now that I have wiped the tears and taken a deep breath - WOW. Jack - I have always known you are very talented but this was incredible! Jim was such an amazing man, husband, father and friend. I still miss him. Nancy and Jim and Jennifer, Danny, and Gerald will always be part of my "family". Fantastic tribute Jack - very much from your heart. God's Speed. Linda Mason

Jimmy Kent...what a great guy! I remember all the weeknights he was at our house as my dad's crew chief and the many weekends we spent at Jim and Nancy's when I was a very little girl. You are missed, Jimmy Kent!!

As a young boy working across the street at the Smalley's Jim would come over and give me pointers that have stuck with me to this day!! I looked up to him then and still do!! His memory will always be with me hope to join him someday at the speedway in the clouds!!! Rich Truchinski

Great,tribute Jack,reminds me of a good time in racing.back when I used to work on 88s with you Gerald, Willie,and Nancy.And before the tour began,used to look forward to the fall spectaculars,getting the ole' iron horse ready for open comp.against the mods.Jim sure could give them a run for their money.Hope all well with you.God bless,and God speed Jim!!!

My dad(Dale Hubbell) Was good friends and raced with Jim back in the day and I grew up with #88 as a kid. Im sad that he is no longer with us, but I know he's somewhere racing his heart out with all his friend.

He is still the most amazing man I know. This tribute is well deserved. I will never forget and will always share all the amazing stories. :)
