RACER WALSH
« on: August 01, 2017, 05:57:50 PM »
Just saw on the Walsh web site that Racer Walsh has passed. Look at the web site for details. A good friend / a great racer / a real plus to the Pinto club and to each and every member. RIP

At least Walsh didn't suffer too long from ALS. It is such a horrible way to leave this life.

There is a write up in this month's Classic Motorsports Magazine on Jerry's legacy. His Brian has a segment also on the IMSA Pinto his Dad Jerry was driving and Brian still drives today.
 RIP Mr. Walsh  We remember and will salute your Legacy..
Yes, it is possible to study and become a master of Pintosophy.. Not a religion , nothing less than a life quest for non conformity and rational thought. What Horse did you ride in on?

I bought Pinto go fast parts from Jerry for over 20 years. He was the man to go to for help setting your Pinto up for the track. He forgot more about racing than most people ever know. Parts were always top notch and always fit. RIP dear friend.
