So sorry to hear of Jack Engle's passing. The sport is aging, that's for sure, and we unfortunately are starting to see lots of names we all grew up with leaving us.
Must be a h*** of a dragstrip and car show going on upstairs. :)

Bummer.... He does have a couple sons who will keep the company moving forward....and making it to 88 years old and accomplishing the things that Jack did, I doubt he had a lot of regrets.... Eventually we all have to deal with our own immortality...Dealing with it without having regrets means you led a good life....
RIP Jack, and thanks for all those good camshaft and valve train goodies!!!!!
It's sad to first hear about some of these guys as I read the obituaries posted here. Makes me regret not trying to build a hot rod earlier and see some of these guys while they were still living! RIP Jack.
... and Jocko Johnson passed away around 4 am this morning.
No Way! :eek:
Just heard that news too. :( For those who may not be familiar with Jocko, here are a few pictures of the car for which he is most famous.
