Trotter1t Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 Houston area racer Rick Nesta passed away today around 7:30pm from a short bout with cancer. I had the privilege of having Rick as a close friend for over twenty years. He is deeply missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
