  • Life Near the Fast Lane
    Life near the fast lane Villagers recall time spent living minutes from Indianapolis Motor Speedway The Villages Daily Sun Saturday, May 25, 2013 By Keith Pearlman Quick, in what city is the Indianapolis 500 held? If, like most people, you offer the obvious answer of Indianapolis, you would be incorrect. The “Greatest Spectacle in Racing” is actually held every Memorial Day weekend in Speedway, Ind. The 97th running is set for Sunday at the world-famous Indianapolis Motor Speedway, which is located in the town of about 12,000 residents that was incorporated in 1926. Speedway is an enclave of Indianapolis with its own government, police and fire departments, and school system. Villagers Elaine Harrold and Jane Routte cringe a little when they hear the race called the Indianapolis 500. They both lived in Speedway and are proud of the town’s racing heritage. “Everybody in town hates it being called the Indianapolis 500,” Harrold said. “They all believe it should be the Speedway 500. Route agrees. “The old-timers really resent it being called the Indianapolis 500,” she said. “Speedway is a separate town with a separate identity.” Harrold, of the Village of Pennecamp, moved to the town with her family as a child in 1954. She graduated from Speedway High School in 1965 and was later married and gave birth to her own children in the town. “I’m proud to say I grew up in Speedway,” Harrold said. “We lived three blocks from the famed oval. The grandstands along the front stretch towered over our backyard.” Routte, who lives in the Village of Summerhill, moved to Speedway with her husband, Steven, in 1988.

  • FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Saturday, May 28, 8 A.M., EDT BOB
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Saturday, May 28, 8 a.m., EDT BOB RUSSO FOUNDERS AWARD PRESENTED TO BILL MARVEL INDIANAPOLIS -- Bill Marvel, a key figure in the motorsports corporate and media industry for more than 50 years, Saturday was honored with the Bob Russo Founders Award for dedication to auto racing. The award was presented by previous Russo Award recipients Bill York and Michael Knight during the annual American Auto Racing Writers and Broadcasters Association breakfast meeting at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, site of Sunday’s 100th anniversary Indy 500. Marvel has attended every Indy 500 since 1941. Russo, the late racing journalist/publicist/historian, founded AARWBA in 1955. He died in 1999 at age 71. The Russo Award is presented for “profound interest, tireless efforts and undying dedication to auto racing as exemplified by Russo throughout his lifelong career.” Marvel, a charter member of AARWBA, was unanimously chosen by other members of the Russo Award committee. Marvel’s pioneering and successful accomplishments span almost every non-competitor role in motorsports, including management, public relations, marketing, sales, promotions, writing, editing and announcing.
