jon ledster was all right,,when i was a kid at the pod he use to speak to me as an adult,that stuck in my mind,the other thing that stuck in my mind was about 1989 we had a big bigbarbie that developed into a big big foodfight and he came to see what was going on and he got covered in hot dogs and red sauce,,,,,funny what you remember,i also have a picture of me looking like a kin hippie standing next to his mustang that had red flames,,,my condolences to his family.......bill felstead

Always good to hear stories about good people in drag racing and how they've influenced other racers.

For me I'll never forget the time and effort John put into advising and arranging my license upgrade in junior dragster when we were the first English junior team to race abroad, Hockenheim 2001.

Condolances to his family and RIP another one of the good guys.
