Dale Coyne

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dale Coyne (born 1954 in Minooka, Illinois) is a Champ Car auto racing team owner and former driver.

Following four unsuccessful seasons as a Champ Car driver, he retired from competition to start Payton Coyne Racing in 1988 with Walter Payton. In his early years of team ownership, Coyne launched some impressive careers, including that of Paul Tracy (1991) and Michel Jourdain Jr. (1997). The perennial hopeful has never had great funding and scored a best finish of 3rd at the 1996 U.S. 500 at Michigan International Speedway with veteran Roberto Moreno. The result was matched in 2004 when Oriol Servia accomplished the feat at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. Servia also scored the team's best finish in the points with 10th.
