FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Judy Stropus, 203-438-0501; cell 203-243-2438; [email protected] MARIO ANDRETTI TO BE HONORED BY RRDC AT LONG BEACH Firestone returns as presenting sponsor HILLIARD, Ohio (March 7, 2014) - Mario Andretti, the world's most recognized race-car driver, will be honored by the Road Racing Drivers Club at the "RRDC Evening with Mario Andretti presented by Firestone" in Long Beach, Calif., on Thursday, April 10, prior to the running of the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach. This is the RRDC's sixth consecutive annual banquet honoring auto racing's most influential leaders. Previous honorees were Dan Gurney, Parnelli Jones, Roger Penske, Jim Hall and Brian Redman. These "RRDC Evenings" are acknowledged as one of the highlights of the auto-racing social calendar, drawing fans and luminaries from all forms of motorsports. The Firestone brand will return as presenting sponsor of the RRDC banquet for the fifth straight year. "Firestone has a long-standing relationship with Mario Andretti and is honored to be part of this year's Road Racing Drivers Club banquet recognizing his unequaled achievements," said Lisa Boggs, Director of Bridgestone Americas Motorsports. "He is certainly deserving of this recognition because it wasn't just the winning that made him a champion, but the way he did it. His legacy represents the essence of racing." The dinner's proceeds will help support the RRDC’s young driver initiatives, including its groundbreaking SAFEISFAST.com program and the Team USA Scholarship, which the RRDC has backed since 1997. The RRDC Evening with Mario Andretti presented by Firestone will be held on Thursday, April 10, at the Hilton Hotel, 701 West Ocean Blvd, Long Beach, Calif., with cocktails at 6 p.m., and dinner at 7:15 p.m. -

The first race was a six-hour race on New Year's Eve The next race held 14 months later as the first 12 Hours of Sebring. In its early years, the Sebring circuit combined former airport runways with narrow two-lane service roads. Sebring people were killed during the race, which was more people killed than in the race's prior year history combined. In another incident Mario Andretti in his Ferrari P2 tangled with Don Wester's Porsche on the Warehouse Straight near the Webster Turns, killing four spectators and then crashing into a warehouse next to the track. Subsequent to these events, the facilities were upgraded and the circuit layout was changed, including eliminating the Webster Turns and creating the Sebring Park Chicane further down the track to move the straight further away from the airport warehouses. It Sebring known as preparation for the 24 Hours of Le Mans[4] as Sebring track's extremely bumpy surface, combined with south-central Florida's perennial hot weather, is a Sebring of a car's reliability.

He entered two Porsche 935s at the classic French Enduro. He had started racing in IMSA in 1977 after having bought one of the original ten Porsche 934.5 models offered by the factory for IMSA racing in 1977. He ran some of the IMSA races with mixed success in 1977. Towards the end of the season, he and Bob Garretson made an agreement for the 1978 season, where Garretson Enterprises, an independent Porsche repair shop in Mountain View, California, www.porscheroadandrace.com would prepare Dick’s car(s) in 1978. They had already made a name for themselves in 1977 by preparing Walt Maas’ IMSA GTU championship winning Porsche 914/6. They had entered eleven races and won eight of them, and finished second, third and fourth in the others, winning the championship over the factory Datsun 240Z of Sam Posey run by Bob Sharp. They had also prepared the winning car at the famous Pikes Peak hill climb (Colorado USA) in 1976, a Porsche powered buggy driven by Rick Mears. Dick was looking to expand in 1978, and he had ordered a new 935/78 (77A) for Daytona. -
