The greatest Teke: my nominees

I'd nominate two:

Still living category: Bruce Melchert - got TKE out of a two-car garage in Kansas City, and into stability in Indy

Not quite living: RC Williams - an honorary member who became GP and saved TKE after WWII (the big one)

Re: Melchert "moving TKE out of a two car garage in KC to Indy"
is an oversimplification. The writer simply does not know the
story and I will not get into it...but it is totally wrong, and not to take anything from Bruce, the KC move to Indy had nothing to do
WHATSOEVER with stability. It was pure politics, and good frater, obviously you were not t here. Erik P Conard

Are you saying Don Kaser didn't get along with Jim Logan?

that is an understatement.
Perhaps there are other eras more nostalgic.....
