Jeremy Dale

INDUCTED 2023 - Competitor / Builder

Jeremy Dale spent more than a decade racing sports cars, before shifting his efforts to the ownership side of the sport. He attended three racing schools in 1983, finishing at the top of his class at each school. He then raced two seasons in the Skip Barber Northeast Division, winning Rookie of the Year in 1984, before moving to the Barber Saab Pro Series, where he won seven of 27 races over multiple years.

In 1989, Dale won the IMSA Firehawk Series championship, while in his second year as a Dodge factory driver. He also drove for Dodge in IMSA GTU, winning his season debut and adding three more victories; he nearly won the championship, despite missing the first four races.

Dale competed in the 1991 24 Hours of Daytona, where his team was leading in the 20th hour before a tire failure ended their race. He won his class in the 1994 24 Hours of Daytona and added two overall wins that season, where he ended up losing the IMSA WSC championship by just two points.

Following a career-ending injury, Dale spent time as a TV analyst and held a managerial role with the Barber Dodge Pro Series, before becoming the president of a new race team, called RuSPORT, in 2002. He held that role until 2007, with the team winning the CART Toyota Atlantic Championship title, multiple Champ Car races (including the Molson Indy Toronto) and finishing runner-up in Champ Car points during that span. Dale started his own JDX Racing team in 2007, focusing on sports car competition, where his team won the Porsche Carrera Cup North America title in 2022.
