| This website is dedicated to the memory of those important racing buddies and heroes who have passed from this earth. | |
| * William R. "Bob" Jennings (1920 - 1982) - my dad who took me to my first five "Indianapolis 500" events | |
| * Steve Schern (1945 - 1994) - from whom I learned to love racing | |
| * Guy Nadeau (1941 - 2000) - "Roarin' Roy" my best buddy - I miss you | |
| * Tony Hulman (1901 - 1977) - he saved the Indianapolis Motor Speedway from destruction and made the "Indianapolis 500" into the "greatest spectacle in racing" | |
| * Tony Bettenhausen (1916 - 1961) - the "Tinley Park Express" - my first racing hero | |
| * Jim Clark (1936 - 1968) - the "Flying Scot" - in my opinion the greatest racing driver the sport has ever known | |
