1975 Indy 500 crash

[BSNFabricating]

Two years after this, Sneva was the first to break the 200 mph barrier at Indy... And he won the USAC National Championship in '77 and '78 and finally won the 500 in 1983.

Fatal?

[Troubledmindz]

He jumped out the car seconds after the crash without even the aid of a marshall, and strolled off as if he had a minour spin.... Real men back then.

Sneva contacted the car of Eldon Rasmussen in turn 1.
