TRD Appreciation Thread

[Revman]

RIP former TRD President, and my friend, Lee White. Lee pissed a lot of people off bring Toyota into NASCAR, but he made one member very, very happy.....and made me feel like part of the family. WE are not here without Lee. Let's kick some ass in honor of him.

Lee was very proud of his career--for good reason. I think he was remarkable in that he was an old school guy who was brilliant at developing relationships. He understood Toyota's culture. He brought JGR to Toyota....and then took over the engine program. He was truly a great man, and WE are not here without him.
