Image
Does anyone have a better photo for the infobox? This one seems a little small. Possibly one that shows him only? The article isn't on his wife. Matt (talk) 08:55, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
- I've cropped the extraneous background from the image, and softened the remaining background, to concentrate on the couple. If someone comes along with a pic of Dixon alone, then this one will have to do. Kaiwhakahaere (talk) 23:24, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
Biography Wording
This biography seems biased and uses peacock words. Let's try and fix it up. --D-Day (talk) 12:33, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

- This article already has multiple issues, perhaps we should start citing these statistics in the article? FozzieHey (talk) 09:00, 3 September 2020 (UTC)
Maybe the image here might comvince the people changing the 50 back to 49. Moriori (talk) 20:28, 27 October 2020 (UTC)
50 wins includes his 1 win in Champ Car and 49 wins in IRL/Indycar. 49 is the correct number of Indycar wins. 49+1=50. Please stop changing it back to the incorrect number of 49. If need be please manually count his victories in Indycar rather than changing it back to the incorrect number of 50.
