Re: Bob Reed passing?
 

I never will forget the first time I met Bob back in the '80's. I was a newbee and he was a kingpin. He talked to me like he had known me for decades, treated me like "one of the guys". He made me feel so good, I am sad that he has passed, and I think Bullet Bob Reed was a great guy.

Bob was a funny guy. Once in Orlando he had to tear down , Gary Russell had just brought his head up caring it with one hand. Bob came up with his and it took two of them to care it. Bob laughed and said "this is a real head " He will be greatly missed. R.I.P. my friend. Fred & JoAnn Connell

I was pitted next to Bob at the Gators back in the 80's when we were both running SS. I saw him come back from a run and he was wearing cowboy boots. I asked him if he always wore them when he drives, and he said " I only take them off for one thing .... well maybe two things." I remember laughing so hard I almost peed! We were friends from then on. R.I.P. Bullet Bob Reed. Jim

Bob was a great guy. I can see him now with his cowboy boots on telling someone to their face B.S. when they said something wrong. I also remember years ago down at Orlando and he was making a TT beside a slower car and 3rd gear he got side ways swapped lanes and continued down the wrong lane under power. The slower car had one really good time slip. Good buy old friend.

Re: Bob Reed passing?
 

I remember Bob getting out of his car in staging lanes @ Norwalk in the early 90's after he just went three consecutive 8.76's.He was standing there in his cowboy boots and the track official asked him where was his driving shoes, he said son I've been driving in these boots longer than you been alive ! He then got into the 'Cuda and let er rip ! Went over to his trailer after that run and he treated you like he knew you forever. What a legend, he will be missed but not forgotten. Rest In Peace Bob
