We've lost another legend I can still remember those turbine cars and the sound they made. You will be missed.

RIP.
Having grown up in Santa Monica and knowing from a young age that STP was located down on Olympic, it was hard not to root for the 'home team' guys come Indy 500 time.

Another "racing mind" gone. He was from another era when inovation was the norm. That kind of owner is today, rare, where its now only a cheakbook, not a mind or passion for the sport.
