Every year Father’s Day presents the same dilemma—what do I get dad? We’ve covered the litany of shirts, books and other stuff. This year I’ve opted for something different, a story honoring one of my best friends, my dad. Although his name is not well known or one that will be chrononicaled in the sport’s history books, in my mind he is a quiet hero because of his love of the sport, family and God. Although this story is about my own father, watching the parade of fathers and sons/daughters that pass through our family’s race shop, I know that this story could just as easily be about any one of the fathers who have endured countless hours, made difficult decisions and spent more money than they have for the opportunity to share a special part of their children’s lives—Happy Father’s Day.
