    Very sad

    My Mom has Facebook and is visiting us, turned her phone towards me and said, whose this, JB. I said that’s Jackie Boggs, and she told me the news. Very sad to hear, here we were hoping he’d switch chassis and run well again, and this.

    May he RIP.
    Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

                  Just flat sad news. Guess he was on his way to Florence Speedway when it happen. Had the pleasure of speaking with him on a number of occasions at Eldora. Truly a nice dude and took his time to speak with me. Prayers to the entire Boggs family and friend this is a huge loss for the dirt late model community. Jackie to me was a throw back and raced where ever he wanted when ever he wanted. I guess the only consolation is you get to speak with your dad Jack and Randy again. God Speed Jackie. Gonna miss being able to speak with ya at Eldora. Rest easy #4B #LastTrueOutlaw

                            Never got to meet him, but you knew the Boggs name wherever you were from. Great deal of talent in that family. My condolences to his family, friends and fans.

                              I have a Jackie Boggs story this one happened in 2006 at the UMP Fall Nationals at Eldora. It was a Friday night and he had arrived at like 2p.m. or so. Anyway he had parked in the outside pits and was walking up the hill in turn 3 to look at the track. I was standing there and he asked me if i had a light so he could smoke i said i did not have one but my dad did he sat and smoked and talked to us for about 30 minutes he smoked 2 cigarettes and just seemed soo happy and was soo nice. A few years later i was at the World 100 on Friday around 1 p.m. and he talked to me again such a shame he passed.

                                Truly a local hero around here and something you never thought would happen. Myself and several thousands are heartbroken. I hope Andi and all of Jackie’s kids know he was loved immensely.
