    RIP & Godspeed

    RIP to Mr. Todd and Godspeed. I had the pleasure to meet him and I'm glad I did in Atlanta last year. Our condolences to the entire Todd family, especially Monte because I know he was very close to his father.

    to the Todd family, our deepest condolences. Buck will be missed. He was a wonderful man who loved his family and treated everyone he met like family.He had a great love of the sport and could promote like no one I have ever met..If there is racing in heaven, Buck is already signing a matchrace! Rest my friend, you will always be here in our memories and our hearts.

    My prayers go out to the Todd family. I bought my first car from Buck and Monty and they were good people.

    Thank You Buck Todd

    My deepest sympathy to the Todd family. Buck provided me many races from the 1980s-90s in which to run my TAFC and they were always a great place to have fun. It seems that I was always getting beat by Monty, but it was always in a competitive atmosphere and Buck always made sure that we were satisfied with the races and the manner in which we were treated. Buck and his family will always remain in my memory and in my prayers for they truly were and still are a racing family. Godspeed Buck and get some more match races going so I'll have a place to race when we meet again.

    buck todd was a heck of a promoter. Buck always had a smile on his face, regardless of what life threw at him. If not for Buck and monty letting a 17 year old rookie race with them on the match race and quick eight circuit, I would not be where I am today racing a Nitro Funnycar. I owe them a lot. I gained so much experience racing on the back woods 1/8 mile tracks and it made me a better driver. Buck and Monty were as close as me and my dad. Nothing can ever take the memories from Monty of his dad. You're in our prayers. I'm sure he's got plenty of match races booked for us when we get to heaven! God speed, Buck.
