Today we say goodbye to our champion, Jason Johnson. May God be with the entire Johnson family in this time of loss. Rest in Peace dear friend until we see you again.
Jason was a five-time Champion of our Lucas Oil American Sprint Car Series National Tour, as well as Champion of the ASCS Gulf South Region.
According to press issued by the World of Outlaws:
"During Lap 18 of the Jim Boyd Memorial at Beaver Dam Raceway, Johnson was involved in a crash battling for the lead on the backstretch of the third-mile oval. Emergency crews quickly attended to the situation and transported Johnson via air to Aurora Medical Center, where he later succumbed to the injuries. Johnson, 41, of Eunice, LA, is survived by his wife Bobbi and five-year-old son Jaxx."
Any further information will be posted when appropriate.
