Even if the thought of Mother Speedway Draping
itself around the Grands Prix motif for an IndyCar Road Race makes me simply
Scratch my Head...
Today, 45 years ago, Art Pollard lost his
life during a qualifying attempt for the Ill-fated 1973 Indianapolis 500. For
which it was George Phillips, the Elder
Statesman of IndyCar Bloggers who introduced me to him posthumously several
years ago. For which I was simply amazed over Art's Off the Track efforts with
Handicapped Children, not to mention his
overall good nature.
