Stanley Cole Fuchs (July 7, 1952 – December 18, 2000), known professionally as Stan Fox (Fuchs being the German word for "fox"), was an American open wheel race car driver. Fox was one of the last links between the midget car racing world and the Indianapolis 500.
Midget car career
Fox began his career as a midget car racer. He won the 1979 Badger Midget championship, and the 1979 and 1980 Belleville Midget Nationals. He placed in the top twelve in points in nine seasons, even after he raced sporadically after moving to United States Auto Club (USAC) open wheel events. He had 19 USAC career wins.
The accident ended Fox's racing career but he stayed involved with the sport. He started the non-profit organization Friends of the Fox which supports people with head injuries and brings a person to the track each May to meet drivers and get VIP treatment.
Death
Fox was killed in a head-on collision on December 18, 2000, on the Desert Road some south of Auckland, New Zealand. Fox was driving through the night to attend a speedway meeting and collided head on with a northbound vehicle.
Career award
- Fox was inducted in the National Midget Auto Racing Hall of Fame.
