How did Andretti manage to finish second? He spent as much time going backwards as he did frontwards.

I'm not familiar with pole sitter Don White. Pretty impressive showing.

The 60's and early 70's seem to be the golden era's of racing...

I went to Langhorne speedway 1/2 mile in 1970 to watch indy car racing and a red 70 SS396 Chevelle was the pace car. Remember it well. Mario was there with his #2 bright red car and I will always remember the sound of the Offys and the Ford Coyote race team Ford engines

The sound of those cars is definitely intoxicating. Incredible.

Surely it isn't so; but is sure looks like the driver of car number 1 is flicking his cigarette at 4:28 to 4:31.

Fun and intense racing actions back then.

David Pearson and Bobby Isaac and a number of other stock car drivers had working cigarette lighters in there cars.

He drove Ford's (quite successfully) for a friend of my Grandfather's in the early 60's. Ironically, Jerry Kulwicki (father of the late Alan Kulwicki) was the crew chief. My Dad has fond memories as a kid being around that shop. They were based in Milwaukee.

Wish we had an American driver like Mario in F1 racing....
