Bruce Bellom

Post by jcox07 »

For those that knew Bruce Bellom, he passed away from covid 19. He was a well known autocrosser and a evo instructor as well. He will be missed in the autocross family, please keep his family in your thoughts and prayers. JY

Always liked Bruce.. a great Instructor. I think he came down to a local at Walter State a few years back.

Yeah. He co-drove with Curt.

I don't know how many times I ran against him, but he was in an HS Mini around when I was running my Mazda 3 in HS. He was a staple as an announcer at different national events, too.

I've autocrossed with Bruce for 15+ years, off and on. He was our divisional SS when I became a SS in 2005 and I got to see him last year at Charlotte where we talked for a bit. Always the kindest guy around the grid. Sarge will be missed by thousands of people.

He was a great guy. Taught the Evo at Walter State with him and would talk to him from time to time at events. I didn't know he was sick until I heard he had passed. He will be missed.
