Godspeed BP

Benny Parsons, 1973 NASCAR season Champion, 1975 Daytona 500 winner, and long-time race announcer, died today at age 65.
story on That's Racin' site
BP was one of the finest people on Earth. My thoughts to his family, & to those fortunate enough to have met him during his life.
We'll miss you, Big Guy.

Love and Peace, Clarence
