I first saw Rollie run at the Dayton Speedway in 1967...I was a 16 year old kid and I was impressed. Years later in 1996 when we were at The Phoenix Mile for the pavement USAC sprints we unloaded on a Thursday morning. That afternoon we went to the motel pool and spent a couple of hours talking to Rollie and Norm Shields with a few adult beverages....some great stories that day!! Rollie was still the same friendly guy who I was in awe of when I was a teenager. Nothing but respect for him.
