Friends,

With a heavy heart, I am sad to report that Charles Blossom passed away yesterday while loading his cars for the Brainerd divisional meet. We don’t know the cause, he simply collapsed. Chucker was a multi-time number one stock qualifier at Indy with his GMC Syclone, Dodge Neon/SRT4 and most recently with his PT Cruiser. He held countless national records and has a room filled with Wallys from class and event number one qualifiers over the past 25 years. Chuck was 59 years old.

Please keep Judy, Phil, Joe, his family, and his friends in your thoughts and prayers. I will have a memorial for Chuck in my pit space at the Brainerd nationals so feel free to swing by and make a toast to an incredible racer and friend. I will update this message when funeral information is finalized.

*** Updated*** Chuck's obituary is here - http://www.startribune.com/obituarie...s-alan-blossom

The funeral is Thursday morning, somewhat fittingly during first round of Stock at Brainerd.

Godspeed Chuck, hit the tree and go to the top of the ladder.
