R.I.P. Don Panoz

DND

Stay Safe, Healthy and be Kind - Stop Hate
Possibly most widely celebrated for saving sports car racing in North America
1935-2018

A few years ago I was at Road America and watched Kathrine Legge drive the Delta Wing and hold first position for many laps. This car had 1/2 the horsepower and was a crowd favorite. RIP and thanks to Don Panoz

Just a few pictures of some of the innovative design of this legend and his contribution to IMSA.

Don Panoz was never afraid to try something new and unusual. Kathrine Legge showed a lot of courage to get involved with the Delta Wing ... and drove that car for all it was worth.

Below is another Panoz Roadster:
