Larry Nuber, one of the pioneers in broadcasting short-track racing across middle America, passed away in his home in Indianapolis. His body was discovered Thursday by police, following up on a call from relatives who had not heard from Nuber in several days. Nuber's body has been taken to Toledo, Ohio, where his parents live, and will be buried there.
Final arrangements are pending.
In recent years, Nuber had managed the motorsports program for the Wynn's Oil Company. Nuber was a familiar face and voice on ESPN during its early years of broadcasting short-track racing in the Midwest and was a regular reporter on Indianapolis 500 telecasts.
