Frank Arciero died Wednesday night, he was a car owner for decades. Best finish at the 500 iirc was 3rd in '87 with Fabrizzio Barbazza.

A great interview with David Letterman talking about his relationship with the Indy 500, Bobby Rahal and talking about guys like AJ Foyt, the Unsers and Ayrton Senna

As a Jeff Krosnoff fan that is really sad to hear. :(

I watched the 1987 Laguna Seca CART race today and he and David Hobbs did the commentary. They made a great team! Bob will be missed.

This makes me cry. Such a large part of my youth as a race fan in the early 90s. Most of those voices are gone now.

Tommy Kendall was pretty decent and outspoken during his brief tenure in the Champcar commentary booth, before he dared to criticise that Dick Gentallozi and suddenly he was out of a job...
