POSTED 9-20-09 TRAGEDY HITS RACE FANS ON WAY TO BEECH BEND RACEWAY THIS WEEKEND

By Angie Dickens - Contributing Writer for this Site - On Friday a life long racing fan from IN., Jason Napier and his wife lost their lives in an auto accident in Columbus, In. while on their way to Beech Bend to watch the IOFS race. I did not know them personally but have conversed with Mr. Napier several times on race8.com. He has served our country for many years and enjoyed all levels of racing. His screen name on race8 said it all..."LovinRacin". I would like to send out our deepest sympathies to the entire Napier family and their friends. May God be with you all in such a trying time. NOTE FROM THIS SITE: We did not know this family. Being a race fan myself, this makes us family. From all races fans, I know I can say May God be with their family and our thoughts and prayers are with them. For Jason Napier and his wife we say rest in peace.
