I realize a lot of you guys don't know who Big Willie is but trust me he is a street racing legend and huge credit to the hobby like no other. He will be missed.
Stole this off the Bullet:
From Irwindale Dragstrip's FB page:
I am sad to announce that Big Willie Robinson, King of the Street Racers, has been transferred to hospice care following a double amputation of his legs. The doctors are giving him 3-4 weeks to live. He can have visitors right now, but that may change.
His last wishes are to be buried with his wife Tomiko. I have been informed that the International Brotherhood of Street Racers will be taking donations to prepare for this, and Sheriff Bill has offered to pay the difference.
Cards and letters can be sent:
