Watkins Glen, New York (March 18, 2026)- Global fashion icon and longtime motorsports enthusiast, Tommy Hilfiger will be honored with the prestigious Cameron R. Argetsinger Award for his Outstanding Contributions to Motorsports on Thursday, October 15, 2026, at The International Motor Racing Research Center’s Annual Award Gala. This event will be held at the renowned Corning Museum of Glass.
Presented by the International Motor Racing Research Center (IMRRC), the Cameron R. Argetsinger Award recognizes individuals whose influence, dedication, and leadership have made a lasting impact on the world of motorsports.
Established in 2014, the CRA Award honors the legacy of Cameron R. Argetsinger, the visionary of the first post-World War II Road race in the United States, held on the streets of Watkins Glen on October 2, 1948 – an event establishing the village as one of the world’s most iconic motorsports destinations. Past recipients include Brian Redman (2025), Bobby Rahal (2019), and Chip Ganassi (2014), among other distinguished leaders in the sport.
“In recognition of his significant contribution to motorsports and his lifelong connection to the sport, The IMRRC is delighted to welcome Tommy Hilfiger to the distinguished group of recipients of the Cameron R. Argetsinger Award,” said Margaret Lawrence, Executive Director of the IMRRC.
“Watkins Glen, once home to the U.S. Grand Prix, was where I first experienced the excitement and energy of motorsports,” said Tommy Hilfiger. “Those races left a lasting impression on me and sparked a passion that has stayed with me throughout my life. It’s incredibly meaningful to be recognized by the IMRRC and to be connected to the legacy of Cameron Argetsinger and the historic racing community that helped shape the sport in America.”
Born and raised in nearby Elmira, New York, Hilfiger opened his first store, People’s Place, in his hometown in 1969 before moving to New York City and launching his namesake brand in 1985. Over the past forty years, Tommy Hilfiger has built a unique legacy at the intersection of sport and style, partnering with athletes and teams across motorsports, competitive sailing, golf, snow sports, and soccer.
A lifelong Formula 1® fan, Hilfiger’s passion began as a teenager watching through the fences at Watkins Glen International. That early fascination evolved into a decades-long connection to the sport. Since the 1990s, the TOMMY HILFIGER brand has partnered with iconic Formula 1® teams including Team Lotus, Ferrari, and Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1® Team, and collaborated with seven-time World Champion Sir Lewis Hamilton on five collections pushing the boundaries of sport and style. Today, the brand continues to expand its presence in motorsports through a multi-year partnership with the Cadillac Formula 1® Team as the team’s official apparel partner.
The 2026 IMRRC Award Gala is open to the public, with a limited number of tickets available. Individual tickets and tables of 10 may be purchased. Guests are encouraged to secure tickets early, as this event is expected to sell out. Tickets may be purchased online at IMRRC or by calling The Center at (607) 535-9044.

CORNING, N.Y. (September 10, 2025) – On September 4, racing legend Brian Redman was honored at a gala dinner, presented by Sahlen’s, with the 11th annual International Motor Racing Research Center’s Cameron R. Argetsinger Award for outstanding contributions to motorsports.
Held at the Corning (N.Y.) Museum of Glass, which recognized multi-race team owner Chip Ganassi at the inaugural dinner in 2014, Redman was presented with an etched glass trophy by founding member and past president of the IMRRC, J.C. Argetsinger. Famed motorsports TV broadcaster Dr. Jerry Punch was the Master of Ceremonies, and another racing legend, David Hobbs, along with renowned TV commentator Bob Varsha, conducted the spirited Q&A with Redman. “Doc” Punch has been the voice of the Argetsinger Award presentations for 10 of the 11 years.
“Brian was as much a part of the British Invasion as any long-haired musician. He came to our shores, he saw, he looked around and he conquered American road racing, earning legions of fans. I can think of no other person who more deserves this award tonight for outstanding contributions to motorsports than Brian and I’m so proud to be here,” said J.C. Argetsinger, Cameron’s eldest son and a retired Schuyler (N.Y.) County judge.
Said Hobbs: “Brian is a very worthy recipient of this award. He is one of the best long-distance drivers ever. He’s had many wins in a very dangerous era. Not many people can say they beat Mario Andretti three years in a row [in the F5000 series].”
“As many times as I’ve heard Brian speak, reminisce, or just pass the time, it always fascinates me to be in his company,” said Varsha. “He, David and I could have prattled away for much longer tonight. Seeing him receive the distinguished Argetsinger Award will be a great memory.”

Video shout-outs were shown, sharing congratulatory messages from racing and industry celebrities, including Mario Andretti, Sam Posey, Hurley Haywood, Bobby Rahal, Danny Sullivan, IMSA’s John Doonan, Revs Institutes’ Miles Collier and Scott George, Roger Penske, Zak Brown and Lyn St.James.
Particularly poignant were the video tributes presented by former FIA Senate President Nick Craw and former race-car driver Kathy Rude, commenting on how Redman’s perseverance following Rude’s 1983 major crash in Brainerd, Minnesota, resulted in sanctioning groups upgrading their Catastrophic Insurance policies.

“This evening was really amazing and it’s a wonderful reflection of the IMRRC and the work that it does,” said Redman. “Cameron has been rightfully lauded for all the work he did to organize the original races in Watkins Glen and bring the sport into the professional era. This was an astonishing presentation tonight, and it means a great deal to me. It’s probably the best honor I’ve ever received. Thank you.”
John Saunders, Chairman of the IMRRC Governing Council, spoke about the IMRRC’s mission to help preserve the important legacy of motorsports, focusing on major future growth plans for the research center.
Margaret Lawrence, Interim Executive Director of the IMRRC, said: “Presenting the Cameron R. Argetsinger Award serves the dual purpose of honoring an outstanding contributor to motorsports while also providing an enjoyable evening for guests and sponsors who appreciate the mission of the IMRRC. They in turn participate in one of the IMRRC’s most significant annual fundraising events. The dinner was a resounding success. Brian Redman was a deserving honoree. Many of our event sponsors have been with us since the beginning, a further endorsement of our mission to preserve motorsports history.”

A 60″x42″ acrylic painting created during the reception and gala by famed motorsports artist Bill Patterson was auctioned off at the end of the evening. It depicted two race cars significant to Redman’s career: the 1970 Targa Florio-winning Porsche 908/3 of Redman and Jo Siffert, with Redman driving through a village in Sicily alongside the Lola T332 Formula 5000 car he raced to victory at the inaugural Long Beach Grand Prix in 1975.

On display at the entry of the Museum was a Watkins Glen International Toyota Camry Pace Car, and the BMW M49 CSL that Redman drove to victory at the 1976 24 Hours of Daytona.
Established in 2014, the CRA Award has been presented to such legends of the sport as Chip Ganassi, Roger Penske, Mario Andretti, Richard Petty, the France Family, Bobby Rahal, Lyn St. James, Mike Helton, Richard Childress and Zak Brown. All proceeds benefit the 501(c)(3) IMRRC.
The award memorializes Cameron R. Argetsinger, often referred to as the father of American road racing. He was a visionary who, in 1948, conceived, organized, and drove in the first post-war road race in America through the roads of Watkins Glen. He brought Formula 1 to WGI in 1961 and the circuit hosted the United States Grand Prix for 20 years. He was president of the IMRRC for five years, until his death in 2008.
Sponsors and supporters of the Cameron R. Argetsinger Award dinner included Sahlen’s; Chemung Canal Trust Company; Revs Institute; NASCAR/WGI; SCCA Inc.; SCCA Foundation; Hilliard Corporation; The Gorsline Company; Larry and Karen Kessler; Glenora Wine Cellars; Greg Galdi; Global Prairie; Welliver; Simmons Rockwell; and John H.

“My Travels On Racer Road: Can-Am and Formula 1 in their golden age” by Pete Lyons
Foreword by Sir Jackie Stewart Publication date: March 2025 ISBN: 9781910505878 |
LONDON (March 18, 2025) – “My Travels On Racer Road: Can-Am and Formula 1 in their golden age,” by Pete Lyons, is now available in the U.S.
As Sir Jackie Stewart states in the book’s Foreword, “Pete Lyons was one of the best journalists in Formula 1 at the time I was racing.” Lyons himself writes that when he became obsessed with motor racing, “It felt like my true road.” He witnessed Chaparral, Lola, McLaren and Porsche create ever-more-monstrous Can-Am beasts to be tamed by the likes of Jim Hall, John Surtees, Bruce McLaren, Denny Hulme, Mario Andretti and Mark Donohue. His cameras, notebooks and typewriter also were there when Tyrrell, Lotus, McLaren and Ferrari were the dominant forces in Formula 1, with Jackie Stewart, Emerson Fittipaldi, Niki Lauda and James Hunt the World Champion drivers.
Immersed in this golden age of racing, Lyons brought a unique blend of evocative description and fastidious factual detail to his craft, putting his devoted readers at the heart of the action. This captivating memoir will transport the reader back to those times.
- Early travels, including criss-crossing the USA in his family’s pre-war Rolls-Royce and by Vincent motorcycle in the late 1950s, then discovering Europe’s racing scene as an impecunious wanderer in the early 1960s.
- Breaking into professional reporting from 1964 for the UK’s Autosport alongside his father Ozzie Lyons, with assignments embracing IndyCar, endurance sports cars, Formula 1 and more, and getting to know the great names in these worlds.
- Falling in love with the Can-Am upon its inception in 1966 and following this “big-banger” racing closely for seven seasons, during which “Riding with Revvie” — laps with 1971 series champion Peter Revson in a McLaren M8F — was among the highlights. Lyons’s travels “on racer road” took him all over North America by Volvo station wagon, Ford van and Honda CB750 motorcycle.
- Embarking in 1973 upon four seasons of global travels with the Formula 1 “circus” and all the diversions that came with that, including time spent with Emerson Fittipaldi at his home in Brazil and a British rallying odyssey as Denny Hulme’s navigator.
- Around Europe, Lyons’s means of travel included his Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, a VW camper van that doubled as mobile office and hotel, and rented private aircraft that he flew to races himself.
- In his post-nomadic life, Lyons has been plying his trade ever since as a writer, photographer and editor.
About the Author: Born in 1940 in New York State, Pete Lyons is an international motorsports reporter, photographer and award-winning book author in the fields of Formula 1, Can-Am, endurance sports cars, IndyCar, Trans-Am and many more forms of racing.
