Simone 2 To Michael and Tessa 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS A driver fails without the support of a solid team, and I thank my friends, who supported me lap-after-lap. I learned a great deal from my advisor Jack Davis, who when he was not providing helpful feedback on my work, was always willing to toss the baseball around in the park. I must also thank committee members Sean Adams, Betty Smocovitis, Stephen Perz, Paul Ortiz, and Richard Crepeau as well as University of Florida faculty members Michael Bowen, Juliana Barr, Stephen Noll, Joseph Spillane, and Bill Link. I respect them very much and enjoyed working with them during my time in Gainesville. I also owe many thanks to Dr. Julian Pleasants, Director Emeritus of the Samuel Proctor Oral History Program, and I could not have finished my project without the encouragement provided by Roberta Peacock. I also thank the staff of the Samuel Proctor Oral History Program. Finally, I will always be grateful for the support of David Danbom, Claire Strom, Jim Norris, Mark Harvey, and Larry Peterson, my former mentors at North Dakota State University. A call must go out to Tom Schmeh at the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame, Suzanne Wise at the Appalachian State University Stock Car Collection, Mark Steigerwald and Bill Green at the International Motor Racing Resource Center in Watkins Glen, New York, and Joanna Schroeder at the (former) Ethanol Promotion and Information Council (EPIC).

    Auto & Motorcycle Titles Spring 2020 {IPG} The Brown Bullet Rajo Jack's Drive to Integrate Auto Racing Bill Poehler Summary The powers-that-be in auto racing in the 1920s, namely the American Automobile Association’s Contest Board, prohibited everyone who wasn’t a white male from the sport. Dewey Gaston, a black man who went by the name Rajo Jack, broke into the epicenter of racing in California, refusing to let the pervasive racism of his day stop him from competing against entire fields of white drivers. In The Brown Bullet, Bill Poehler uncovers the life of a long-forgotten trailblazer and the great lengths he took to even get on the track, and in the end, tells how Rajo Jack proved to a generation that a black man could compete with some of the greatest white drivers of his era, wining some of the biggest races of the day.

    Most memorable Daytona 500s: Mario Andretti beats the odds By: Al Pearce on February 22, 2012 • AUTOWEEK.COM • • • LAT PHOTOGRAPHIC - Mario Andretti's lone win in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series came in the 1967 Daytona 500 for Ford. Editor's note: We're counting down the days until the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series season- opening Daytona 500 on Feb. 26, and we'll feature one of our 10 most memorable 500s each day until the green flag waves on the 2012 season. In this installment, Autoweek NASCAR expert Al Pearce looks back on Mario Andretti's win at Daytona in 1967. It can be reasonably argued that Mario Andretti is the best driver to ever have won the Daytona 500. While he did not have the longevity in NASCAR to be talked about among the greats in that series, and he may not have been the greatest Indy-car driver ever or even the top IROC racer to ever put on a helmet, when it's time to pick the best overall driver across all disciplines of the sport, it's hard to go against Andretti. Against some daunting odds--after all, he'd made only six other NASCAR starts--he won stock- car racing's biggest event in February 1967. Before then, he had won USAC Champ car titles in 1965 and 1966 and would win another in 1969. He went on to win the 1978 Formula One World Championship, the 1979 IROC title and the 1984 CART Indy-car title. Andretti is one of two men, along with A.
