 Indy From The 60's
My first Indy 500 was 1960 when I was a Freshamn at Southport High school. I have attended ecery Indy 500 since then except for 65-66 when I was in Viet Nam. My Favorite time at Indy was when I was able to have my Son and Grandson go with me. At the time I was managing a Suite for the Toro Coorporation in Gasoline Alley. That morning we arrived before the cannon went off at 0500 in the morning. Coming into the Speedway with the Tower backlit in lites is all inspiring. My Son and Grandson thought it was totally amazing coming into the Sppedway a that tinme in the morning and seeing the Pagoda as it used to be called in all it's Glory. I have seen so many changes at the Speedway since 1960 and all of them have been great! Being an Indiana native living in Indianapolis all my life there is nothing more I look forward to each year that attending the Indy 500 and now the Nrickyard 400. Thanks Tony for all the changes you have made at the Greatest Race Track in the World!
