Download or read book Indy 500 Recaps written by Pat Kennedy and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2019-03-20 with total page 735 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book started as a self-serving exercise to personally organize the major details and interesting facts of each Indianapolis 500 over the hundred-plus-year history of the greatest race in the world. For many of us passionate racing fans who have attended a multitude of 500s, there is a tendency for the details of the races to (somewhat) blend together. I hope this book will help to provide clarity in this regard as well as educate. During high school, many of us chose to use CliffsNotes to assist in the education process. This book is somewhat patterned after that concept. It falls somewhere between Donald Davidson and Rick Schaffer—the best and by far the most detailed book on the history of the Indianapolis 500—and a multitude of pictorial books with limited information. I hope it will prove to be an easy read with entertaining and educational information.

In a race previously dominated by home-grown American cars and drivers, double Formula 1 World Champion Jim Clark scored a stunning victory in 1965, and twice finished second in his Lotus cars powered by Ford engines. Here is the definitive inside story of how – encouraged by the great Dan Gurney – the tiny British Lotus team, headed by Colin Chapman, took aim at an icon of American sporting life and rewrote motor racing history.

Book Synopsis Indy's Wildest Decade by : Alex Gabbard
Download or read book Indy's Wildest Decade written by Alex Gabbard and published by Cartech. This book was released on 2004 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For race fans in America, the month of May has always meant one thing: the biggest spectacle in racing, the Indianapolis 500. It's a race that has captured our attention from the moment Ray Harroun took the first checkered flag in 1911. Indy racing has been so fascinating because it has always been a showcase for racing technology -- big purses and major sponsors have ensured that Indy would always attract the fastest of the fast. Over the years, the 500 and its racers have produced a pendulum-like swing between periods of wild innovation and a conservative "run what wins" philosophy. The latter is exemplified by the '20s, when the Millers dominated so thoroughly, and the '50s, when the traditional Offy-powered roadsters ruled. The Miller era was upset by the Great Depression and subsequent introduction of the "Junk Formula" in 1930. The new rules resulted in a "run what ya brung" ethic that brought all kinds of machines and ideas to the brickyard. In the '40s though, it became clear that an Offy-powered roadster was the way to go, and those cars began a new era of domination that lasted into the early '60s. And that's when all hell broke loose. In 1961, a diminutive British Grand Prix car tried its hand at Indy. Jack Brabham's rear-engine Cooper-Climax didn't have the horsepower to beat the roadsters, but its light weight and nimble handling gave it a decided edge in the corners. Suddenly, the Offy roadsters were under attack. Rear-engine cars, stock-block engines, turbines, twin-engine Porsches, Diesels ... you name it, somebody tried racing it at Indy in the 1960s. The battle intensified when Ford entered the fray in 1963, leading to the first rear-engine win when Jimmy Clark drove a Lotus-Ford to victory in 1965. Within a few years, the roadsters were little more than relics, as advances in tires, engines, aerodynamics, and race car engineering left them in the dust. It was the wildest decade ever for America's biggest race. Book jacket.
