He’s been one of the most innovative engineers in the sport, a man who commands universal respect.

He’s been a driving force for data in optimizing cars for longer than most people know. Yes, they used data in testing long after NASCAR “banned” the use of data... Now they use a McLaren Electronics dash and ECU. It’s the reason why MoTeC Systems, the US importer, is in Mooresville. I’ve seen $100K installs, with hundreds of sensors and incredible custom harnesses in these cars for testing. Amazing.

Also, Larry brought over engineers from F1 to help their NASCAR effort. A whole bunch followed!

It’ll be a good one.
Great history on Larry! I always think of his 23 wins, 21 pole positions, 209 top ten finishes, and who can forget his first Winston Cup win was at Watkins Glen with Ricky Rudd!?

But, even more unforgettable was his appearance in one of the best racing movies of all time.
