Just thought I would let you all know that Dexter Thomas racer of the 60s and 70s era has passed away July 16th 2012 .. He was on the old timer list..
He sat near the flag stand on most race nights in his wheel chair for the past few yrs ..maybe gone but will never be forgotten R.I.P my friend of many yrs |

I had the pleasure of meeting Dexter a couple of years ago at the old timers night. He brought a picture of himself winning the consolation race back in August of 1971. He was never a big winner, but without drivers like him helped to make racing entertaining. My condolences to Dexter's family.
