R.I.P.: BOTT Founder Dwaine Williams
Oct 23, 2007
From a Press Release
Racer Dwaine Williams, 71, the man who founded the original Batttle Of The Twins (BOTT) class in AMA Pro Racing, suffered fatal injuries during an AHRMA race at Barber Motorsports Park Saturday.
In a crash that was similar to the one that killed young gun Connor LaFrance last month at Barber, Williams ran off the outside of the track approaching the back-straight chicane, hit and flopped over on top of a steel barrier, and slid into a support post, suffering fatal head injuries.
Prior to the fatal incidents involved LaFrance and Williams, the location where they crashed was not considered a likely impact zone or crash site.
