RIP Jason Leffler...I never got the chance to meet him personally but I've talked to many people who were around the dirt scene while he was coming up through USAC and he was very well thought of and loved. He did regular weekly interviews with Sirius NASCAR Radio and since his son was born that was the main passion in his life....he loved his son so much, I really pray for Charlie and his family going through such tough times.
I'm curious if maybe he had a health issue to begin with, they said he hit the wall head on when a part failed but were investigating...I can remember a few deaths in the 90's and early 2000's in the Northeast LA area dirt tracks where drivers died in wrecks but were due to health issues that caused the crash. Tough man...really sad.

I read a story that said after he hit the wall the car flipped violently. Considering the head/neck restrains aren't as secure in those types of cars, the whiplash could have done it. Or if some debris hit him the wrong way. I'msure we will learn more today.
