It is an 1973 STP Oil Treatment Spl., Lola chassis, Foyt Engine. It is either the twin to the #40 that Wally Dallenbach drove in '73 (a 'stellar' 33rd place) or the same car re-numbered elesewhere. There was no., #20 at Indy that year. It is not Dallebach as he has a light blue helmet, nor Johncock, also a blue helmet.Quote:

before I could get back to you. That is the correct answer. 1972 was the year there was no #20 at Indy. Dallenbach qualified 33rd in the #40, and Johncock was driving the #24 McLaren. Johncock won Indy in the #20 STP Eagle in 1973.Quote:

That was a cool photo of Art Pollard's car. He drove the 20 car in 1972 at Ontario, Trenton, and Phoenix. The last race for Art before Indy was Texas in 1973 then the number and sponsorship went to the Patrick team for Indy and Art Pollard went to Fletcher Racing. 1973 was a sad year for both teams. ;(
New Photo coming up.

Your Turn.
So what is where the speedway used to be now? is the fence part of anything or just standing in the middle of a field??
Ther are office building and condos there. About 70 percent is covered by development. The fence is sitting in the middle of a lot. I am going out that way I will see if I can take a photo of it. To bad I can't find the remains of victory circle as the center was bricks from Indy.Quote:
