I was 23 & attended that race,along with going many years in a row. Each year,except for my first, I was in high school, the Monday race was rained out & they let all in for free on Tuesday! I didn't have any extra money, sadly I wasn't able to buy a T-shirt. I think it was either '70 or '71. After that I bought one every year! I was there for the 25th & 50th anniversary. I've lived in GA for many years now, & unfortunately haven't been to INDY in a very long time. I sure miss going!!
Nice, just plain nice....this is exactly what I am talking about...I was a kid exposed to these guys when they rolled into my home track as a kid and they are all still superheros... Nuff said.---- "they're used but they're good"
I was behind the starting line when Snake ran that 5.97.

This is back in the day when we would camp and party all along 136. Wild fun and great racing.
