Brad will be in the booth, alongside the museumโ€™s brand-new Eagle/Ott raffle sprint car, on Friday, July 15, from 4 until 5 p.m., and again on Saturday, July 16, from 3 until 5 p.m. According to interim museum special events coordinator David Herrmann, โ€œWe are excited that Brad Doty will be joining us in the booth on both Friday and Saturday of Kings Royal weekend. There are few people more popular in Ohio racing circles than Brad Doty. He is a great ambassador for sprint car racing and it is always an honor having him represent the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame & Museum, too.โ€
