Bob Lee was a legend. Enjoyed the stories he sent in to Cruisin' Style Magazine about Nostalgia Drag Racing. He had an interesting outlook on life. Always fun to talk to on the phone and in person. I took this shot at a Nostalgia event at Bradenton Motorsport Park. Deepest Condolences to his family. RIP

Bob was the best. My condolences to his family. Known bob 45 years. A good friend. He was a very knowledgeable person and always got the job done. And always worked hard. I don´t know anyone that did the work that he did and charged so little. A great person to talk to. Built several of my engines. He will definitely be missed. I feel bad that he is now gone.

Bob is the one that introduced me to road racing. We met through his brother Charles and Drag Racing. He once told me that road racing was a much longer thrill than drag racing because you were in the seat more than just 10 seconds. A race I will never forget was at the fairgrounds with all concrete walls. After winning 2 races 1 by 1/2 car and other by 1 car, on the way out he walked up to me and said "Do you know who you just beat ? The Winner of the West Palm Beach Grand Prix. Because of Bob I raced pro in SCCA and IMSA. Thanks Bob. Rest In Peace. You will be missed.
