Re: Calvin Queahpama passes
I'm sorry to hear this. He was a very nice man. Division 6 loses another fine racer and gentleman.

Re: Calvin Queahpama passes
Sorry to hear about Cal`s passing. The "Big Q" was always a very quiet yet friendly racer, who I remember watching him when I was a kid in the early 70`s. I hadn`t seen him out at the races for the past couple of years, since his son died. RIP Cal.

Re: Calvin Queahpama passes
Of Northwest Stock Racers these 3 names jump up immediately for me: Method, Queahpama, and Kost. Seems Heaven's entry list keeps growing. Although Bill & Calvin are not with us right now, the same can't be said about their spirit and respect.
Rest In Peace.

Re: Calvin Queahpama passes
I'm saddened to hear that. He was an institution at the Div 6 races, he always ran really well.
For instance.... this is the race where Bobby DeArmond ran the "9", Cal outqualified him. http://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCSt...r2001#indextop |

Re: Calvin Queahpama passes
Cal was mentor, a customer, and mostly a friend.
I'll always consider myself lucky to have known Cal Q... Definitey one of the nicest poeple I've ever met in life, or in racing. "Rest In Peace" my friend, your family is in our prayers. Larry Fulton |
