Watching some old Indy tapes...Mickey Thompson...Granatelli Bros...British invasion....front vs rear engine cars in the same race...stock blocks...Offys....Goodyear vs Firestone...glad I was around to see it.
Funny nowadays we have incredible technology for data collection...awesome materials...fantastic machine tools...legions of smart engineers...and mostly they are just changing springs and shocks...

I was going to get to go to the ‘67 or ‘68 500 with My older Brother and was all excited about it.
He took His 389 GTO Tri Power to the local shop for a pre road trip check out and the L/H lower A frame was cracked!
He had the $$$ for the trip/race or fix the car- He fixed the car;(
I know now that was the right decision but back then I didn't understand, I was a 6/7 YO kid.
