    2 b clear: I was terminated for a slur statement I didn’t make. My statement filled in how I got attached AFTER the factually incorrect story aired. As a society do we now jump the gun to garner the headline without integrity attached? Have we eroded basic respect? Lesson? Kids?

    BIG shout out to @ConorDaly22 for daring to try. His 1st Daytona 500 was '92. Perfect front row seats above start/finish. He fell asleep on parade lap, was pushed under seats and never stirred until after checkered flag. #beextraordinary @BitNile @ToddAultIII @NASCAR @FOXSports

    He died #OnThisDay 45 years ago. His name was Ronnie Peterson. Everyone called him SuperSwede. Remember him this way. ❤️

    I’ve been asked many times; Who is the fastest driver you’ve ever seen? Even today, I still think it’s JPM

    In honor of Juan Montoya announced as the driver for McLaren at the #Indy500... it's that time. The "lap of the gods." #indycar version

    John Paul Jnr saved my life in 1984. This impact stopped me hitting the wall without the front on the car. Sadly the @IMSA champion is now gone. RIP my friend

    Saw this great comment and analogy this morning; “Proper tribute to the P51. Gets shot up but still makes it home.” @USAFRecruiting @ECRIndy @ConorDaly22 #aimhigh #beextraordinary

    Shocking reveal, by @DaleJr on why his career ended. Struck home with me 'cos I'm 10 mnts trying to kick effects of concussion (snow ski shunt)-this book crystallized it all for me-TU. I wonder 'bout others?

    Just TERRIBLE news that Gil has died. So sad. I got a call when he was trying to decide if he would come to America. Became a true ambassador for the sport. So so sad. Thoughts and prayers for the family. RIP my friend.
