Everything about Joe Dawson Racecar Driver totally explainedJoe Dawson ( July 17, 1889 - June 17, 1946) was an American race car driver.
Born in Odon, Indiana, Dawson competed in the Indianapolis 500 race three times, beginning in 1911 when he drove a Marmon to a fifth place finish.

At age 22 years and 323 days, Dawson stood as the youngest winner of the "500" until Troy Ruttman won the 1952 Indianapolis 500 at age 22 years and 86 days.
