The Little 500 Hall of Fame has announced “Big Jim” McCune as the new sponsor for the Little Hall of Fame Inductee Plaque.
This plaque is awarded to those individuals selected to be inducted into the Little 500 Hall of Fame at the annual award luncheon held in May.
McCune is the son of three-time Little 500 starting driver “Irish” Jim McCune and the father of 16-time starter Jimmy McCune.
“Big Jim” McCune chose to honor the memory of his father, naming the inductee plaque, “The Irish Jim McCune Memorial Little 500 Hall of Fame Plaque.”
A new logo has been designed, which will be engraved into the plaque beginning with the three 2023 inductees, Charlie Altfater, Jim Riddle and Herman Wise.
