Q: How did it all start for 2-time #Indy500 winner Gordon Johncock?
A: At the age of 5 on a John Deere tractor.
A look back at a treasured trip to South Branch, MI and a piece I did on Gordy, the 1976 #INDYCAR champ, in 2019. #RIPGordy

INDYCAR is deeply saddened to learn of Gordon Johncock's passing.
The 1976 series champion was known for his hard-charging, no-nonsense style that led him to two Indy 500 victories and 25 wins. "Gordy" was 90.

Today, we remember those who lost their lives on September 11, 2001, and honor the heroes who selflessly answered the call. #NeverForget
Was great to have Barry Melrose swing by the station a few years ago. And what a personality and wit. So good. Loss of a legend tonight.
Rest easy, Barry.
Aaaaand, a final race preview for 2026. Where has the time gone?
Looking forward to today’s #INDYCAR Mission Foods GP of Monterey

Now that's how you do a doubleheader! The biggest thank you to our Milwaukee Mile fans for being there through it all at the Snap-on INDYCAR Weekend 🏁
History was made, the energy went through the roof, and this race couldn't have happened without you!
Here's to many more years 😉

UPDATE: The Snap-on Makers and Fixers 250 remains red-flagged due to rain as track-drying efforts continue at @TheMKEMile.
Once the green flag is displayed, the race will run to 250 laps or 8:30 PM ET, whichever comes first. Per the INDYCAR Rulebook, the race will be deemed official once the race leader has completed 126 laps.
While we wait out a little ☔️ at @TheMKEMile, a preview of what’s to come in the @Snapon_Tools 250’s this weekend…

World-class racing meets world-class markets. The @IndyCar Freedom 250 Grand Prix on @FOXSports brings today’s series drivers alongside the sport’s living legends to recognize the unparalleled tradition and legacy of America’s motorsports industry.
Proud to mark the moment with $FOX at the Nasdaq opening bell.
Nothing like having a newspaper or magazine in your hands. But I’m old school. You’re a helluva journo, David. There’ll be more years to come.
See you in a few weeks!
