You must be too young not to know who Del was. WIKI is your friend.
BTW..that's not a race "track", it's called a road course.
Real race "tracks' have 4 corners and two straightaways.

Wikipdia Drag Strip Definition
A dragstrip is a facility for conducting automobile and motorcycle acceleration events such as drag racing. Although a quarter mile (1320 feet, 402 m) is the best known measure for a drag track, many tracks are eighth mile (201 m) tracks, and the premiere classes will run 1,000 foot (304.8m) races. The race is begun from a standing start which allows three factors to affect the outcome of the race: reaction time, torque, and traction.

These click-bait tactics to get real "track" guys to look at boring drag strip results and pics is getting old.
