ELKHART LAKE, Wis., – June 29, 2023 – Oh, the things that happen in the world of motorsports! In a recent incident that left everyone at Road America both amused and bewildered, the president of the iconic racetrack, Mike Kertscher, had a comical response to Will Power’s less-than-flattering comments about the circuit’s offtrack safety and care.

For those who missed it, after a disappointing qualifying run that landed him in 22nd place on the grid for the Sonsio Grand Prix presented by AMR, Team Penske driver Will Power didn’t hold back when he called out the track, saying, “This track’s terrible; when you go off, they do a terrible job here so they need to pick up their game.” – Read More About It. 

Well, Mr. Kertscher, known for his quick wit and sense of humor, decided to respond in a truly unforgettable way. He commandeered one of the famous “**** trucks” used to empty portable toilets throughout the 4.048-mile facility and strategically parked it in front of Power’s motorcoach in the drivers’ lot atop the paddock.

With a mischievous grin and a touch of irony, Kertscher’s clever rationale was simple: “Call this a **** track, get the **** truck!” The unexpected sight of the pungent vehicle created quite a spectacle, bringing laughter and lightheartedness to an otherwise contentious day.

But it doesn’t end there. Road America, never one to miss an opportunity for fun, has decided to turn this memorable incident into a charitable cause.
