Evening With A Legend: Rob Dyson
Tonight, we have an opportunity to bring a piece of Le Mans to you, sharing in the Legend of Le Mans with guests from different eras of over 100 years of racing. And as your host, I’m delighted to introduce
Rob Dyson, who started his racing career in 1974 at Watkins Glen International, In 1981 he won the Sports Car Club of America’s GT2 national championship, and began racing professionally in IMSA GTO and the SCCA Trans-Am in 1982. The following year, to support his professional racing efforts, he founded the Dyson Racing Team, which over the next few years grew to be one of America’s premier sports car racing teams. From their base in Poughkeepsie, New York over the course of nearly four decades the team won 19 championships, 72 race victories, started 72 times from the pole and achieved 224 podium finishes. Among the team’s notable accomplishments is a pair of overall victories in America’s premier endurance race, the Rolex 24, at Daytona International Speedway. And In 1986 Rob found himself behind the wheel of a Porsche 956 at the famed Circuit de la Sarthe: Le Mans.
