Today during the Brickyard 400 pre-race ceremonies, they held a moment of silence for little Caleb. It was very touching. He certainly captured the racing world's hearts. God Speed little guy...….

Such a shame to hear...,. RIP little racer!
What honestly troubles me more is this isn't #1 top post but yet bloomquist the "goat" or Weiss infractions are. Sad to see where our society has headed. The family has had it horrible as has the child but we can't talk about them, instead we build pedastle for all others that honestly are not making a difference..... Hope all sleep well!!!!

Sad news to hear …

I am heart broken to read this. A parent should never ever have to bury their child but the sad reality of it is that it does happen. Instead of all of us bickering about Bloomquist or Weiss or any other bs we should be thinking about this family and praying for them.

I wish there was a cure for this awful disease. There has to be something that can be done to cure this awful disease so that kids and adults alike don't have to battle this deadly disease and can live a life of happiness and experience life
