Sergeant Politeness Posted April 18, 2014 Author Share Posted April 18, 2014 Sorry for asking, but do you know the cause of death? Bleeding of the brain, I'm not sure what initially caused it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dd908 Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 God speed to Ronnie. Never got the chance to meet him, but I heard so much good about him throughout the industry, and I saw his driving abilities through the internet and he knew how to wheel a truck. Such a sad loss for the monster truck community and to the Sturges family. Rest in peace Ronnie, my thoughts and prayer are with him and his family. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noah Chiasson Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 I honestly didn't know much about the Nasty Boy camp, but any loss is a big one. Race in Peace Ronnie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outlawed Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 He had some medical issues (type 2 diabetes and a partial foot amputation because of it) and as far as I was told he even drove last weekend. Only got to watch him driving from TMB:TV episodes but when he wanted to he could run circles around people in racing. RIP Ronnie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIP Ronnie He only drove the ride truck this past Sunday, since he couldn't drive the race truck because of these unfortunate medical issues.

BigfootFanTV Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 I've only seen Ronnie perform while watching videos of him here on the internet, never in person. He was certainly a good driver to see. R.I.P Ronnie Sturges Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robertson Racing Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 I got to see Ronnie drive multiple times. The guy knew Nasty Boy like the back of his hand and was capable of doing anything he wanted with that truck. Its sad to see a home town hero pass away.

obsessionracing Posted April 20, 2014 Share Posted April 20, 2014 I have met Ronnie a couple of times, and he was one awesome dude. He was one hell of a driver and an even better person. The monster truck world has lost a great person far too young. Godspeed Ronnie, you will be missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
