Dana Jennings is a local lad (he was in high school with my older daughter). His father was a racer. He has written some books about racing and has done a number of articles on our favorite subject for the Times and, earlier, for the Wall Street Journal.

Unfortunately, Dana has had a very bad case of prostate cancer, which he's been writing about for the past couple of years. According to the latest story, he's doing well. We sure hope so.

I guess that I will be the first one to call him out on the "USAC Silver Crown Series for midgets". . . . .

Otherwise a great article.

Dick,

The links are much appreciated. Thank you.

It nice to see something about "our sport" in a paper that has the magnitude the NY Times.
