The Stan Bowman Story dives into the electrifying world of USAC sprint car racing in the early 1960s, focusing on the remarkable career of driver Stan Bowman. With insights from racing legends like Mario Andretti and Johnny Rutherford, it recounts Bowman’s historic victory at Eldora Speedway in 1962, where he claimed the track’s first-ever USAC sprint car win. This milestone not only solidified Bowman’s place in racing history but also caught the attention of Clint Brawner, the renowned Indianapolis 500 mechanic. The narrative, told by Diane Beck Lane, daughter of Harold Beck—Bowman’s car owner at Eldora—brings the golden era of racing to life. In 2012, Eldora Speedway, now owned by Tony Stewart, honored the 50th anniversary of Bowman’s iconic win, celebrating both Stan Bowman and Harold Beck. Bowman’s legacy was further immortalized in the PBS documentary The Legend of Stan Bowman.
