Sad to hear that. Great engine builder and team owner. And seemed like a genuine nice guy.

Great innovator in the sport. He will be missed. RIP Mr. Yates. “Government exists to protect us from each other. Where government has gone beyond its limits is in deciding to protect us from ourselves.” ― Ronald Reagan Retired old fart | |||

For one brief season, in 1995, I had the privledge of being this gentleman's pilot. He usually sat up in the front (co-pilot's) seat. You would be hard pressed to find a man of greater character, grace, humility, and talent. Few people at the time could squeeze more horse power out of a normally aspirated V-8 motor than Robert Yates. Rest in Peace, Robert. You will be missed by many. | |||
