Just read the Forest Lucas passed away.
A man that went from truck driver to billionaire and all the while giving back. Huge sponsor of Drag racing and all other forms of motor sports Very few have given back as much as he did,
True entrepreneur if ever there was one. Truely will be missed in racing world.

Mark YeagerI've always admired Forrest. I'll never forget when Lucas Oil became the sponsor of the NHRA sportsman series. That 1st year, he walked the staging lanes and thanked us drivers personally for supporting the series. He literally walked up to me when I was strapped in the car, and said a heartfelt thank you. Clearly a true gentleman.
God Speed Mr. Lucas.
