Dave MacDonald honored as "Athlete of the Month" by the Helms Athletic Foundation in October
1963. Dave's back-to-back victories in the two biggest road races in America; the LA Times Grand
Prix and The Pacific Grand Prix, as well as placing 2nd in the Hawaiian Grand Prix made Dave a
unanimous choice. Dave was only the ninth race car driver to receive this prestigious award since its
inception in 1936, and the first to recieve it during the United States football season. Carroll Shelby
accompanied Dave to the awards ceremony.
