Dedication to the Fullest
Message:
It was Pole Day at Indy, 1985. Sitting in the grandstand, I saw a cart with a driver almost lying down, coming down pit road from Gasoline Alley. The cart stopped and the crew literally picked up the driver and put him in the car.
I asked my husband, "Who is that driver?" He told me it was Rick Mears, whom had been badly injured the previous year. I thought he must be crazy or really loved to drive.
Rick Mears showed that day what it means to be at Indy, year after year.
