    One of the guys that sucked me into dirt racing as a kid in the 70s. I still hold that against him! RIP Flyer.

    Very, very sorry to hear this. I knew he was having health issues but I had no idea they were life threatening. Mike's testimony changed the course of my life and I know I will see him again. Not many left from early NDRA period, I think Duvall, Buck Simmons and Freddy Smith were my first driving hero's, they occupied a special place in time at Cherokee Speedway I will always hold in reverence and awe. Now only Freddy remains.

    There is alot of good guys out there. Not just in LM's. Every track has that select few that would go above and beyond to lend a hand, tool or part in the pit area

    Met him at 441 Speedway in Dublin, Ga in the mid ninetys & I was so impressed at how friendly he was & he carried on a conversation for a good 15 minutes with my 2 sons answering all there questions. As we left I wished him best of luck in his racing & I can see that smile as he said thanks& wished us the best also. From then on I was a true fan of his . Our thoughts & prayers go out to the family& RIP Mike. Nicky& Christy Henry

    I just talked with a friend of mine at the track Saturday night that started a racing ministry a few years back solely on hearing Mike speak for the first time about his relationship with God.....Mike touched a bunch of folks in many different ways.

    RIP flyer

    Absolute terror on the tracks back in the days, and a hellraiser to boot. He found the Lord and became a new man. RIP to the Flintstone Flyer.

    RIP Mike.

    I know he was someone who was truly trying to practice what he was preaching.

    I bought his shirt when he came up to Atomic in Ohio for his nomination into the HoF. And had it signed. Might have worn it once. Never again. Will hold a special place and never be worn. Really liked him, always. His look, his cars, the way he changed his life. RIP Mike, fitting time that you passed.(3:16)
    Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.
