"I never worried about my longevity." At 66, legendary racer Willy T Ribbs returns in the SRX series!!

Summary: Racing legend Willy T Ribbs is a true renegade.In a sport that, at the time in the 70s and 80s, was populated by white men, he became the first black man to test a Formula 1 car, race in the Indy 500 and was one of the most successful drivers in the Trans Am series.And, being a black man in a white man's sport, he endured his share of racism...but thru it all, he maintained the attitude that he was going to prove the old addage, "If you want to be the man, you have to beat the man." His story was told in the documentary, "Uppity" ....and now at 66 yrs old, he's returned to racing alongside the likes of Bill Elliot, Tony Stewart, Bobby Labonte and more in the SRX racing series!!
