A Ranger was the pace truck at the famous Salem speedway in Indiana this 4th of July weekend. I didn't attend but wish I could have. I saw Jeff Gordon win the sprint and midget feature there when he was just out of high school, well before his NASCAR career started. Names such as Ruttman, Carter, Sweikert, O’Connor, Jones, Foyt, Unser, Andretti, Vogler, Allison, Parsons, and Waltrip just to name a few, grace the list of past winners. It is a high banked .55 mile track.
On another note. Today is a bad day for me because I had to decide weather to attend the rescheduled Indy 500 this year or not. I have seen every one since 1987, even went back to see the few rain delayed ones. But I just can't put my wife and I at risk this year. We are both 69 years old and she has other health issues. We are trying to be careful during this pandemic. So I had them credit my order for the 2021 race.
