RIP: pocono raceway founder Dr Joseph Mattioli
thought some of the nascar fans on here might appreciate this, hope it hasin't been posted.
early this week, founder & chairman of Pocono Raceway Dr. Joseph "Doc" Mattioli passed away, at 86 years of age. he was a well known local figure, and an all around nice guy, who donated alot of $ to many local causes & charaties, and will surely be missed.
from what i understand, pocono raceway was also the last privatly owned track on the nascar circut.
