ImPRESSions© The Official Newsletter Of The American Auto Racing Writers and Broadcasters Association August 2005 Vol. 38 No. 7 AARWBA Thanks Our Official 50th Anniversary Sponsors: (Click on any logo to go to that sponsor’s website!) 36th annual All-America Team Dinner, Saturday, Dec. 3, Hyatt Regency in downtown Indianapolis NASCAR President Helton to be Featured Speaker At All-America Team Dinner, Dec. 3, in Indianapolis NASCAR President Mike Helton will be the featured speaker at the AARWBA’s 36th annual All-America Team dinner, Saturday, Dec. 3, at the Hyatt Re- gency in downtown Indianapolis. The dinner will mark the official conclusion of AARWBA’s 50th Anniversary Celebration. Helton will share his important insights with AARWBA members and guests in Indy one day after the annual NASCAR NEXTEL Cup awards cer- emony in New York City. Helton has been a key 842-7005 leader in growing NASCAR into America’s No. 1 motorsports series and one of the country’s most popular mainstream sports attractions. Before becoming NASCAR president in late 2000, Helton had management positions at the Atlanta and Talladega tracks, and later was NASCAR’s vice president for competition and then senior VP and chief operating officer. “I’m happy to accept AARWBA’s invitation to speak at the All-America Team dinner,” said Helton. “AARWBA members have played an important role in the growth of NASCAR and motorsports in general. I look forward to this opportunity, and to join AARWBA in recognizing the champion drivers of 2005, and congratulating AARWBA on a successful 50th anniversary.” AARWBA members voted NASCAR’s founding France Family as Newsmaker of the Half-Cen- tury, the headline event of the 50th Anniversary Celebration. -

Racing, Region, and the Environment: a History of American Motorsports
RACING, REGION, AND THE ENVIRONMENT: A HISTORY OF AMERICAN MOTORSPORTS By DANIEL J. SIMONE A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2009 1 © 2009 Daniel J. 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). -
