One of Canada's finest young Indycar drivers, Moore tragically lost his life in the final CART race of 1999.
Recognized as a star from his very start in racing, he won the 1990 North American Enduro karting championship. In 1992 he was the USAC West Formula 2000 champion and in his first year in Indy Lights (1993) he had eight top 10 finishes. In 1994 he finished third in the Indy Lights championship and in 1995 he won the title, winning 10 of 12 races, thus breaking the record set by Paul Tracy who won 9 of 14.
In 1996, he went to CART and had two podiums and one front-row start. In 1997 he won the Milwaukee 200 and became the youngest driver (at 22 years, 1 month and 10 days - just edging Al Unser Jr. by 19 days) ever to win a National Championship race in CART, including when the series was sanctioned by USAC and the AAA. He had one other win that season and finished fifth in points.
He continued to win races and to finish on podiums. He was third in the standings in 1998 and, at the time of his death in 1999, had been signed by the legendary Penske team to partner with Gil de Ferran for the 2000 season.
He is sadly missed by his family, by his fans, by the racing community and by his fellow racers.
Although it would have happened anyway at the end of what was assured to be a brilliant career, Greg was inducted into the Canadian Motorsport Hall of Fame in 2000 - far too soon!
We remember him, salute him and miss him.
