![]() ![]() “I have always admired Donald’s passion and dedication to the Speedway and ‘The Greatest Spectacle in Racing.’ His ability to seemingly recall every detail of IMS history is remarkable, and he is one of the greatest storytellers racing has ever seen. “No one has more knowledge or more appreciation of the heritage of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway than Donald Davidson,” IMS and Ind圜ar owner Roger Penske said in the release. That lifelong dedication to the sport long made him one of the unforgettable names around the race and track's history, according to the once teenage race fan who now has also dedicated his life to its future. Following his work there, he briefly joined what is now IMS Productions as a historical archivist in 1997 before moving to the IMS Foundation as a historian the next year in his current role. He would return the following year to America permanently, soon jumping onto the radio network himself while being hired by the United States Auto Club as a statistician, where he worked for 32 years.
