Title: Jim Deist passes
Post by: Wester on March 10, 2009, 12:04:04 PM

I know Glen Barrett notified folks on the Landspeed List yesterday about Jim's death but I have yet to see anything on Landracing.com.

Jim was a friend and consultant to most racers on the Bonneville Salt Flats and his contributions to racer safety have been a big part of survival for everyone in racing.  I can't think of a single safety area where he didn't have an impact.

Thank you Jim Deist and Godspeed.  We'll see you again.
