I feel lucky to say I've met Doonan in person. He's such a down-to-earth person.
I met him when I was racing in Skip Barber MX5. Very cool and always willing to give advice.
Yeah, John’s good people. Very good people.
After the Rolex 24 At Daytona, when he was running Mazda’s racing efforts, he was there after the race helping tear down the big canopy. (My wife and I were there helping, too, because of course you had to.)
I have been attending IMSA (or previous names) races since around 1998, I will stop going to these if they go all electric, You can have all the new generation you can have ...
Maybe call this the PS to the John Doonan interview: Will the electric car secure the survival of vintage racing?
