Sadly, I just found out the sprint car driver Jesse Hockett was killed today in a freak accident at his shop. For those that don;t know who he is, Jess could wheel a sprint car, with or without a wing, like nobody's business.

Today, Jesse Hockett lost his life due to a tragic electrical accident, while preparing the race trailer for the next five nights of racing.
Jesse was an absolutely amazing racer and he prooved that again this past weekend, winning all three nights, but more importantly Jesse was just plain and simple an awesome person. Would help anyone at anytime no matter who or what it was.
He had a heart of gold and showed it every day. He was a person that just made the world a better place.
Jesse was a great friend to everyone he knew, and a great and loving husband to his wife Tina Marie.
He will be deeply missed by all who knew him and sympathys go out to his wife, family and many of many friends across the world. R.I.P Rocket, we Love You bud and will see you and Daniel again one day.


Details regarding services will be announced as they become available.
