Leif in Calif Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 Bombs Away LeMay! Quite a colorful character...didn't do his legacy any favors by being George Wallace's running mate. A certifiable "car guy" he was responsible for opening up air bases for use in auto racing after WWII, which fueled the sports car boom. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Wells Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 (edited) LeMay and sports car racing LeMay was also a sports car owner and enthusiast (he owned an Allard J2); as the "SAC era" began to wind down, LeMay loaned out facilities of SAC bases for use by the Sports Car Club of America, as the era of early street races began to die out. He was awarded the Woolf Barnato Award, SCCA's highest award, for contributions to the Club, in 1954. In November 2006, it was announced that LeMay would be one of the inductees into the SCCA Hall of Fame in 2007 Edited December 23, 2023 by Dave Wells (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
