Re: Lloyd Bray
Thank you for posting this Ed. He was as close to me as he was to you. His influence, teachings and personality touched all he was around all over the U.S., not just those that lived close to him or were taught by him. I am glad to have had the time with him i had, i definitely learned from one of the old school great ones! May he rest in peace.

Re: Lloyd Bray
It is most certainly true that the Good Lord moves in mysterious ways. This morning, as I was poking around on Class Racer, I stumbled upon this thread that I started back in June of '09.
http://classracer.com/classforum/showthread.php?t=18479 As I reread the entire post, it became more evident what a unique, well liked individual Lloyd was. Through DG and Daniel's efforts, some of these stories were shared with Lloyd. The ClassRacer family managed to brighten Lloyd's day and bring a smile to his face if only briefly and let him know how many people he really touched during his time on Earth. R.I.P. Lloyd |

Re: Lloyd Bray
Twenty some years ago I remember Lloyd & DG pulling into Ark City to do some testing, after meeting Lloyd and watching them make passes I was hooked on becoming a Stk & SS racer .. Them white uniforms, immaculate truck, trailer, race car and listening to that stick shift CJ made this already Ford guys blood even blue'er .. Prayers and thinking of you DG ..

Re: Lloyd Bray
Lloyd and DG along with Rusty Gillis were one of the primary reasons I got hooked on class racing.when I was a kid.
Now I am not so much a kid anymore, but I am still hooked. RIP Lloyd, you were one of the best.
