Being a huge fan of the 500, I love those pics!!!!

Those were the days.

Granatelli...has there ever been a better marketer in the history of the US?

I love the pic of Bobby in the rear engine car.

I just watched the slide show...someone is in love with the Unser family, especially uncle Bobby.

Would have been nice to have seen pics of Vuky, Wilbur Shaw, Danny Sullivan's Spin-and-Win, Louis Chevrolet, Tom Sneva's 200 MPH qualification, and maybe Foyt punching Cogan, LOL.

Thankful that Yahoo didn't run the death-crash photos, like Eddie Sachs and Dave McDonald, Gordon Smiley, Swede Savage, etc. Those pictures are haunting to me.

Good read, I'd recomend it to any 500 fan.

The guys on an Indy Car forum that I frequent are raving about Black Noon.

It is on my "Read Sometime Soon" list.
