CuttingEdgeRacing Posted April 14, 2011 Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 Yesterday, John Nick (from San Antonio) was working on a large piece of machinery when a malfunction (we can only assume), caused the large bucket to fall on John. Bystanders were not able to free him, due to the large size of the equipment. John passed from his injuries while pinned under the machine. Some of you may remember John Nick from the "glory days" of San Antonio Speedway. He was currently working on a modified to run at Thunderhill raceway. Please keep our family in your prayers today and this weekend, as we deal with the sudden loss. I will update later, once I find out funeral arrangments. Thank you, Robert Yuras Jr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
