Thoughts and prayers from my dad and I. I spoke with Kip on the phone prior to the Vegas Divisional and just from that conversation I could tell that he is a great person.

Kip was taken off life support this afternoon.At 1:40 today Kip passed away surrounded by his 3 wonderful daughters.Kip's passing was peaceful, surrounded by love.
Today the drag racing community lost a legend.The Ford fans lost one of their best racers, And with that said, 3 daughters, 2 stepsons and grandchildren lost a great man. Kip was always the first one to help someone out.In his honor, take the time to help someone, you may be suprised at the outcome Mike |

So sad! I never got to meet him, but admired his performance and accomplishments. I've heard nothing but great things about him. R.I.P.

Never met Kip, but he did spend lots of time on the phone with me when I was considering a SBF SS/GT build. Truly a nice gentleman

RIP Kip. I just sent him a message 2 days ago asking him if he would be interested in running the SS/K Shootout.
