Hard to believe Johnny Rocca passed four years ago. I always admired him as a person and as a Mercury drag racer. Rest in peace.

I met Johnny at Old Dominion Raceway in 2008 or so. What a great guy, I really enjoyed talking to him. Rest in peace, warrior.

I met Johnny Rocca back in the mid 1990s at Maryland International Raceway,I was 17 years old I had just Graduated from High school. I had just started working for family friend Tommy Gray Racing known as The Fridge Pro Mod ZR1 Corvette #1180 out of Dundulk Md, I'll never forget when Johnny Rocca walked up and Introduced him self to Me he was a tall Man very polite and kind wearing His Native American suit and he danced. Johnny loved his Native American Heritage. Johnny was a true Sportsman on and off the the track. A true hero to all of the Kids and Big Kids alike.Thank you Johnny for the Memories to last a lifetime You will be truly missed Thank you for Mentoring and Nurturing all of us Racer on and off the off the Track over the Years.
