The Jim Travis Story Bricks At Indy
|
Only a chosen few have kissed the bricks at Indy, starting with Dale Jarrett who started the tradition after winning the Brickyard 400 in 1999. Jim goes to the Brickyard every seven years (or so) but if wanderlust for the Speedway gets too intense he brought some of the bricks home to make up the step to the entrance to his shop to ease the yearning. He may even kiss a few when no one is looking. (Culver Blocks with 1901 stamped on the face was one of 3.2 million bricks that made up the surface of the flat two-and-a-half-mile oval in 1909.)
