We lost a great racer and my friend. Sad news. How did we meet? My first Indy when all the rigs were stacked in the grass field, Jane had made a large gumbo in the rig. Not wanting to waste, she sent me out to find a Louisana plate and invite them over. You guessed it Sammy and Dago!!! Sure will miss him. Stephen

Unfortunately I never met him, but I knew all about him. A sharp racer with fast Oldsmobile's. I've been a fan of Olds, Pontiac, and Buick race cars since I was a kid. My sympathies to his family, and friends.

RIP Sammy , met him once, he and I ran the same combo in our cars(400/427) , Sad and certainly surprised that he has passed. Seems like just yesterday he was posting on here. May his family and friends be comforted at this time.
He was a champion in many ways

So sad, I’ll never forget at Graceland him saying to the ticket guy, “thank you ,thank you very much” in his great Elvis voice. Great racer! Nicer person.
