No question, she was a badass! She was much more than a pretty face on the many TV shows, she could do it all. She was talented, and classy and a inspiration for many young girls trying to make their way in what is mostly a mans world.
She is going to be missed.

I was saddened to read that news this morning. I guess we can take a little solace that she went out doing what she loved. The thought occurred to me today that the faster you go, the quicker you get to the end of your route.

The biggest problem with doing nothing is never knowing when your finished.
Id like to think I thought of that phrase,I have seen the same message worded many different ways. Even if I’m in no way ever going to win a Pulitzer award for my motto, I think it’s a good message
Safe to say, Jessi Combs was never “finished”. She alway pushed on and tried something new.
I have meet Stacy David and some of the other automotive TV celebrities from the many Power Tour and Drag Week events I have attended over the years, sadly she is one I never got to meet.
