RE: Cancel Donald Trump as the Pace Car Driver for This Year’s Indy 500

Dear Sir:

I am a Hoosier African American who has attended every Indy 500 race since 1969. I
respectfully request that the Indianapolis Motor Speedway cancel the invitation to Donald Trump
to drive the pace car for this year’s Indy 500. Mr. Trump has engaged in a very public and racist
attack on our President Barack Obama, the first African American president of our nation. Mr.
Trump’s openly racist attacks on the citizenship and education of our president is a national
disgrace, and I would hope that the Speedway, in the centennial year of this great race, would
withdraw its invitation to Mr. Trump as a public demonstration distancing itself from Mr.
Trump’s disgraceful and racially insensitive actions. Even though I plan to attend my 43rd
consecutive race this year with my children, it will be an extremely uncomfortable experience for
my children and me to have to watch Mr. Trump be honored at “our” race. Mr. Trump certainly
does not deserve the honor of driving the pace car at “our” race. Thank you for considering my
request, and I would appreciate a written reply to this request.

Sincerely,

TIMOTHY V. CLARK
