[Calvin Locke]

Growing up, I remember as a three or four year old a neighbor that lost his leg as a race car driver. My father said he successfully sued the track because the guard rails were overlapped in the wrong direction, allowing a car to push one inward, allowing the next in line to slice through the car, and whatever was in the car as well.

Early 1960s.
