R.i.p
 
It is with great sadness and heavy heart I post to everyone, the sudden passing of Bill Edgeworth.
Bill lost a quick short battle to cancer. He was dear friend to me and many people, and will live on in our hearts and memories.
A service will be held Saturday Oct 3 2015 at 2pm in Lakewood Wa.
I will post the address on Wednesday when I get it.

So sorry to hear this,, didn't know Bill well, only talked a few times in the pits. Thanks for posting Shawn. Bill was one of a shrinking number of racers from our Tacoma area.
His Firebird always ran well. R.I.P. Bill.

Bill Edgeworth ran the real fast K/L/SA Firebird, correct? This is sad news, as he was very forthcoming with alot of info, when i was just starting my Stocker build... I never had the opportunity to meet him in person... My condolences to his family and close friends...RIP Bill

You are correct, Brent. A very nice gentleman and an excellent racer. My understanding is that the entire racing operation is up for sale. Car, trailer, pit bike, etc, etc. I believe it is on racingjunk.com,,, if you know someone interested.

Went to the service yesterday,,, a nice, simple one at Bill's place of employment, a manufacturing plant and the racecar and trailer were on display. I learned that the whole operation was sold this past week, the car will stay local and hopefully will debut at Vegas under a new team. Service was well attended.

I am so glad the service was well attended. Bill was a very well liked guy and a very knowledgeable racer.


Brent, glad Bill was able to help you, too bad you never got the chance to meet him in person. He was a great guy to talk with and very passionate about class racing.
