R.I.P. Danny Ongais

Known as The Flyin Hawaiian and Danny On-The-Gas
RIP

 

I remember watching old 00 on tv.

 

It was an honor to have dinner with Ongais and his wife a couple years ago. He was a gracious person, sad to hear of his passing.

 

Met him at Indy when I was just a kid. I didn't realize how much he and Field had done at the time, of course. Good on him.

RIP, Sir, and Get On the Gas.
