Not sure what to say?

This such a tragic loss for a man with so much promise and future. I am glad he died doing what he loved. I am not a race fan but the loss of this talented man touched my heart. I guess he will be racing in heaven with the great Dale Ernhardt. Rest in peace. My deepest sympathy and prayers go out to the family left behind.

I hope the family can take comfort in knowing Scott has received his great rewards in Heaven and pray that in time all of his family & friends can take comfort in this as well.

My deepest deepest condolences to the family and friends of Scott. He was a great driver and a great person.

Wouldn't you just know it. Ole Scotty would beat us in the race for heaven. Race in Peace.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

A racing brother who is still one of the best and will always be remembered forever. Race on my brother!!

Connie, Kathy, Corey and Colin - you dont know us, but we want you to know how deeply saddened we are by this loss.

GODSPEED Scott, you are a true Champion.

My thoughts and prayers are with the entire Kalitta family and all of Scott's friends and extended family. I still can't believe he's gone...I've been watching him race for so many years. Rest in Peace, Scott. You will be missed by so many.
