Guido Daccò

Guido Daccò (10 September 1947 – 29 July 2006 ) was an Italian race car and motorcycle racer from Limbiate. He began motorcycle racing in 1969 and from 1980 to 1984 he raced in Formula 2. He then drove in the 1985 24 Hours of Le Mans and began racing in Formula 3000. In 1988, he moved to the United States to drive in the Indy Lights series where he placed tenth in series points. In 1989, he made his CART debut for Dale Coyne Racing. Daccò had little success in CART and bounced from team to team until 1992, making 23 starts with a best finish of 12th. He failed to qualify for the Indianapolis 500 in his attempts in 1990 and 1991. He returned to Europe in 1992 to drive two races in German Formula 3 and then retired from racing. He made occasional drives in historic races and managed an FIA GT team.

Daccò died on 29 July 2006, after a long battle with an undisclosed illness.
