A man who had his opinions and not afraid to share them and judge you for being wrong. But appreciated your thoughts and teased in only the way someone who truly cares could. And answered almost all of his Mailbag emails, well except for when is Marco getting fired.
Something about him just screamed classic open wheel but understanding the good old days really were the bad old days for the drivers. He loved the old cars and drivers but loved the safety and care of the modern driver and voraciously attacked anyone who dared say danger was better and call them out as never have driven or lost a friend.
Inducted in to the Motorsports Hall of Fame of America for 2021, far too late honestly, but couldn't make it to the hall. They brought everything to Indy and he got to have Indy and Nascar in attendance and probably as big an attraction as the racing itself. Can picture him there as the center of the event instead of the guy hanging back to listen and absorb, he claimed it was the best day of his life.
