We Say Good Bye to Dario Franchitti

Dario Franchitti announced this week that doctors recommended he retire for racing due injuries he suffered during the Houston Grand Prix.

We watched Dario grow to a powerhouse in IndyCar racing winning Indy three times. I can remember his first win, when the weather was moving in. We were on our way back from our childhood homes in west central Indiana at the time. I told my wife as Dario took over the lead and didn't pit as other did, that he was going to win staying out there as we could see in our rear view mirror that a storm was right behind us.

Dario, we hope you stay in racing.... as a car owner or in some capacity. We always enjoyed watching you. You are real champ and gentleman.
