2021 Membership Spokesperson Chris Dyson:
Dear Friends,
I’m a second-generation racing driver. I don’t remember a time when motorsport was not a part of my life and of my family’s. I have so many memories from Watkins Glen. I treasure them all.
My interest in history is almost as long as my involvement in auto racing. I studied it in high school and in college and the subject fascinates me to this day.
So, it’s natural that I’ve had a long-standing interest in the IMRRC. In addition to serving as a repository for so much historical information about motor racing, through its extensive programming the IMRRC brings to vibrant life the more than hundred-year story of our sport. I could literally spend days immersing myself in the IMRRC’s extensive collection!
Beyond my intrinsic interest in the past, I also realize that the lessons history teaches us are critical as we confront the adversities of today and those of the future.
As with so many other aspects of modern life, auto racing faces major challenges to its future. The knowledge that lives in this dynamic institution will prove crucial in addressing those challenges to the sport we love.
I am honored to be associated with the IMRRC, I hope everyone will join my family and me in continuing to support their mission.
