Brownsburg, Indiana (December 29, 2018)………Dick Jordan, who recently celebrated his 50th year as an employee of the United States Auto Club, was honored with his induction into the Circle of Corydon recently in Brownsburg, Ind.

I believe Dick should be inducted into the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame also. When I worked for MSCS, I didn"t have to work the USAC midget race (Hut 100) at Haubstadt ,but was up in the tower watching , and Dick came in and sat next to me., I had heard of Dick before so it was a big thrill to me. For once I kept my mouth shut and just listened, Man I had a blast hearing stories and learning things from Dick. He" a really nice guy who didn"t know me from Adam, but talked to me like we"d known each other fpr years.
Dick I don"t know if you look at this site , but if you do THANKS for one of the best nights of racing in my life

He already is in the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame. A much deserved honor for DJ, my friend and mentor.
