Not with us anymore, too bad.


He sounded like a great guy who loved to race!! Did you know him later on in his life, after his racing career? Sounds like things didn't go well for him after his knee replacement.......did you ever hear what the cause of death was??

A bit of info I ran across;

But Hocking had fallen on hard times of late. He had trouble finding work after knee replacement surgery in 2009. On Jan. 18, a friend paid a visit to his new home in Tracy and found him dead inside his car.
