The Thunder Valley Raceway Park also shared the following statement:

Everyone at TVRP would like to send our deepest sympathies and condolences to the DeMoss family. Long time racer, Butch DeMoss, passed away earlier this morning. Butch was an avid racer and had recently driven his Twisted Texan deep into a tough field at Outlaw Armageddon. He was a great friend to many people at Thunder Valley and he will be deeply missed. Race in Peace, Butch.
