Learned that he passed away yesterday. RIP Vic, you were one of the great ones. Met him at Power Tour when it came to Nashville a few years back and was amazed at how he somehow managed to find time to talk with everyone who came up to him, despite the fact that he was mobbed.

That is sad. He did a lot for the car community.

I met him at the Seattle vintage races back in maybe 1999 or 2000. He made time for everyone. He's left quite a legacy.

Very nice guy. I used to see him at Lime Rock all the time.

Vic and his dad did a lot for the performance market. Rest in Peace.

I'm too young to remember his dad. When the name Edelbrock is mentioned, he's the guy I think of. He has left a legacy few, if any, will match.

RIP. Sounds like he was a genuinely good guy. I spent many hours of car guy adolescents flipping through the catalog day dreaming.

Rest in Peace. Mobbed up? Liked to be around lots of people? Trying to avoid a hit?
