Very sad news out of St. Louis this past weekend. Jim Tucker crashed and was fatally injured during competition at the Creve Coure Classic Drag Boat Race. The event hosted by the SLDBA has never had such an incident. Jim was a great racer competing in the Pro Eliminator category for the past few years. Pictured here waiting to be launched ad the IHBA World Finals in 2006. Rescue reported that all of the Jim's safety gear worked and that he was gone upon there arrival to the crash site.

Jim purchased some pictures from Dragboats .com after this picture was taken. I remember talking to him in the stagin lanes about how great his boat looked (even though I don't care for blue), and he was gracious and was appreciative of my comments. Although I didn't know him, it is always hard to lose a member of this tight knit community, and Jim will be sorely missed, as a competitor and a human being. We have quite a few shots of Jim racing.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Jim's family. If there is anything that we can do here at Dragboats.com, please feel free to contact us.
