Dirt track racing legend Scott Bloomquist is believed to be the sole fatality in the crash of a single-engine, vintage plane on the Bloomquist family farm in Tennessee on Friday morning. He was 60.
titan Kenny Wallace on Friday called Bloomquist 'the greatest dirt racer to ever live.' The Hawkins County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement that the remains are 'believed to be that of Scott Bloomquist,' but official identification will come later from county forensics officials.
legend Tony Stewart, speaking on social media platform X, said Bloomquist 'made dirt racing better.' 'Scott Bloomquist was one of a kind, and he’s probably the smartest guy I’ve ever been around when it comes to dirt racing,' Steward continued. 'What he could do behind the wheel of a race car was matched by the ingenuity he put into building his race cars.' Wallace agreed in a video on X, 'It's a very sad morning for me. He was the smartest dirt racer of all time.
