  • I used to watch him in the late 60's when he drove CAMRA super modified cars in the Pacific NW. I remember his beautiful metallic red Ford powered modified being the fastest at our local track. They used to call him 'The Denver Ace'. RIP Jim.

  • Was This Crash May 18, 1972 or did he die of his injuries May 18, 1972

  • @NealeinMI It almost killed ME!

  • Greg Moore Jim Malloy Ayrton Senna Gilles Villenueve

    Today the fatality come back Dan Wheldon passed away .....

    R.I.P The racing cars the death more fast....

  • @gbop63 when did they start doin that ?! i never saw any in 2011 ! they mus be hiding ! lol drivers back then, were still "real" race car drivers whowere all prepared to put their lives: RITE ON THE LINE ! -in order to perform optimully in getting their car over the finish line firs ! how longs it been since Indy was like that ? Head restraints will not save them anyways ! Not at those aircraf speeds.....................

  • That's a very hard hit at a bad angle. May not be fatal in most cases today but even today very easily could be. You run into a concrete wall at that speed and angle especially in an open wheel race car and at the least your legs are going to take a hit and the decel alone is going to hurt you. Some types of crashes are fatal in any era.

  • In a way it was probably fitting they used a hearse as an ambulance at Indy back in the day, death seemed to be just part of the game.

  • ghost busters anyone about the ambulance rest in piece man rest in piece
