81: Johnny Rutherford, Three-Time Winner of the Indianapolis 500

Johnny Rutherford is one of the most successful and popular drivers in the history of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. A champion of the Indianapolis 500 in 1974, 1976, and 1980, Rutherford captured the poll three times as well. “Lone Star JR” graciously agreed to appear on the “Leaders and Legends” podcast and the result is one of the most interesting and intriguing conversations we’ve had so far.

About Girl Scouts of Central Indiana

We're 2.5 million strong—more than 1.7 million girls and 750,000 adults who believe in the power of every G.I.R.L. (Go-getter, Innovator, Risk-taker, Leader)™ to change the world. Our extraordinary journey began more than 100 years ago with the original G.I.R.L., Juliette Gordon “Daisy” Low. On March 12, 1912, in Savannah, Georgia, she organized the very first Girl Scout troop, and every year since, we’ve honored her vision and legacy, building girls of courage, confidence, and character who make the world a better place. We’re the preeminent leadership development organization for girls. And with programs from coast to coast and across the globe, Girl Scouts offers every girl a chance to practice a lifetime of leadership, adventure, and success.
