Vic, this was very well put together and "Eddie" will be missed greatly. I'm gonna be at Bandimere this weekend, and it will be the 2nd most difficult race I've worked there, 2004 after Darrell Russell passed being the other. I could not stop crying, but I also made a vid for Scott..that reminded me of HIM..Check it out on the vid response..I will pass along your condolenses to The Kalitta Crew tomorrow.

Timmah,thankyou,and yes he will be missed. I also find it extreamly hard to watch after his passing. AS, for Darrel Russell, i remember that day clearly. I was younger and just starting to "keep tabs" on the drivers, when my dad had told me Darrell was gone. They will both be missed, along with Eric. I guess you never really fully understand how much you love to watch people race till there gone. I used to love watching Scott. Good luck this weekend,and please pass along my condolenses.
