RIP Ray. That man could wheel a race car!!!!

My thoughts and prayers are with the Tilley family and friends tonight. I got to know Ray just a little bit away from the racetrack thru a mutual friend. While I don't know why God chose now to take him home, I do know that He took a good man, not just a race car driver. RIP Ray.

While his accomplishments off the track were far greater than those on it, he wasn't too bad on the dirt. Just a smittering of his accomplishments

4 time Selinsgrove Speedway Track Champion

4 time Williamsgrove Speedway Track Champion

4 time Susquehanna Speedway Track Champion

1 time Myrtle Beach Track Champion

69 Wins at Selinsgrove Speedway (all time leader)

18 Wins at Williamsgrove Speedway

In 1995 he said he had over 200 wins overall

National Sprint Car Hall of Fame Class of 2005

York County Racing Club Hall of Fame Class of 1986
