One of the true gentlemen of modern motorsport passed on the 14th. For those who grew up in the 60's & 70's and enjoyed any form of auto racing he was an icon. If it had 4 wheels he could make it go faster, and drive it as well as the best. F-1, Indy cars, LeMans, CanAm, you name it Dan Gurney ran it, and ran it well. He was no slouch on two wheels either, designing his own motorcycle. Thank you for your fierce determination, ingenuity, and skill both at engineering & driving. Rest In Peace Mr. Gurney.

In the 70s I started to buy magazines on F1 and I read Dan Gurney name in the F1 and CamAm races quite often. A era where pilots had a ethics code, honor and cars were manualy controled, no radio, no telemetry.
RIP

Wow, we've lost a true legend within the sport of auto racing. There's not much Dan didn't touch. We in So Cal wouldn't have the Long Beach Grand Prix if it wasn't for Gurney.

Rest in wicked speed, Mr. Gurney.
