I never got to witness that side of Ray. I saw the nice kind man and I alway wondered what happened to him. I thought I heard something about suicide. I hope I’m wrong.
This was a long time ago, but if memory serves why Ray was upset was because Frank Yanoti had said something about, or to, Ray’s wife. Ray clocked Frank in the head with his helmet, knocked him clean out, right directly in front of me and everyone else that was in the paddock. I guess you could make an argument for Ray defending her honor?
