The Easter Egg Roll has been a yearly tradition since 1878, and this year featured fun and educational activities for children of all ages that were invited to the event. An IndyCar show car was on display on the White House lawn, allowing the 40,000 children in attendance to get a close-up look at machinery that is capable of traveling over 220 MPH. Arrow McLaren driver David Malukas attended the event and served as an ambassador of the series as he interacted with attendees and explained exciting details of his profession.
The 22-year-old posed for photos alongside the show car, which features a special livery promoting the upcoming 108th running of the Indianapolis 500 on May 26. “It’s a very special and unique experience to visit the White House and take part in this tradition today,” Malukas said. Aside from the show car, there were also multiple displays erected that illustrated the physical fitness required to drive competitively in the series. Attendees were able to test reaction times with a light board, strength with a bar that simulated a heavy IndyCar steering wheel, and coordination with special strobe light glasses. Children were also given a coloring sheet that highlighted the cars’ numerous safety features. The items on display fit nicely into the “EGGucation” theme the 2024 event was given and were emblematic of the ways IndyCar continues to stay involved in community outreach efforts.
