Every year that Ralph Sheheen attends Iowa’s Knoxville Nationals, he pays a visit to the nearby National Sprint Car Hall of Fame and Museum. On Friday morning, National Sprint Car Hall of Fame Executive Director Bob Baker announced on Facebook Live that Sheheen was one of 13 inductees in the Hall of Fame’s class of 2023. “It’s one of the most prestigious Halls of Fame in the world. “Now I’m going into the Hall of Fame with all four of them,” Sheheen said, audibly stunned at the thought. He announced World of Outlaws Sprint Car races on TNN alongside fellow Hall of Famer Brad Doty. And now, his ties to Knoxville will remain permanent following his induction into the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame on June 3.
