It wasn’t until age 10 that Indianapolis Motor Speedway President Doug Boles’s father finally allowed him to go to the track. Once given the okay, Boles darted for the speedway. Now at age 50, he spends his life at the place he once looked upon with joy and curiosity.
Boles graduated from Butler University in 1988 with a degree in journalism, but his work didn’t stop there.
Boles spent as much time as possible at racetracks.
