We are saddened to have to report the passing of former Nextel Cup driver and 2004 Truck Series Champion Bobby Hamilton, who passed away today at age 49, according to his son, Bobby Hamilton, Jr.
Hamilton, a former Fairgrounds [Nashville] Speedway champion, missed most of the 2006 season after being diagnosed with cancer. (information courtesy of Stock Car Gazette subscriber Glen R, via Jayski’s web site and the Tennessean web site).
