^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Ray Haroun- Driver, Winner 1st Indianapolis 500. It's in white and almost unreadable under the car.
If he had been in an Impala or a Cadillac, he would have survived so the Corvair was a factor. It was also very rainy. Your projection of "probably drunk" is unfounded. I remember the newpaper photo of the crash and being saddened even as a teenager at his loss. I always watched his TV show and thought he and Edie were great.
Ralph Nader is that you? You don't know that. You pretend like you know, but you don't. Not a Ford or a Mercury or a even a Buick? All you know is it was a Corvair and you hate Corvairs...Therefor it had to be the Corvair that killed him. You remember a clipping, you watched his show, you were saddened, you thought he was great... WTF cares? What does any of that emotional crap have to do with the accident?
