from Bruce: I have this photo of a driver that is really missed by me.
Who can forget a talent such as Ron. I guess you could say that about the whole clan of
Tobias'. A true gentleman! |

| 05/05/05 | John Mc | Now that was a racecar! Minimal sheetmetal, big tires, a chip outta the RF mag wheel, fuel injected big block.....these were real race cars! No wonder the sport is struggling today. |
| 05/11/05 | Todd Lewis | What a tragic loss for the sport , I met Ronnie at Fulton when he drove
for Carl Davis and he was so nice to talk to and spend time with me before the Vic 200 |
| 12/03/05 | Rob Sweeten | I think you will find the chip out of the front rim came from trying a
last lap 3 wide pass for the win at Bridgeport. Ronnie went high around a lapped car as
the leader went low and ran out of space. Another note: He also won a
race in this car one handed. The screw holding the front of the door panel came out and he
was afraid of being black flagged while leading so he held the door in place as he raced
to the win. |
| 12/29/05 | Brad K | RIP Ronnie, this man was truly a class act, one of the nicest guys I have ever talked to at the race track. |
| 01.18.09 | Kevin Malone | I am not certain, but I am wondering if the #30 is one of MY all time favorites from Delaware...looks like Harold Bunting. |
