Very sad day today as probably the most legendary announcer of IMS passes at 91 years of age. Tom Carnegie. I'm so glad I got my picture taken with him this past year. He actually was my favorite 500 announcer as I was growing up. A voice that will never be forgotten!

Check out the full stories from IMS, AJ Foyt, Tony Stewart, etc. on Indy's website www.indy500.com
