Jim Clark returned to the Brickyard in 1965 to place his Lotus 38 on the front row with Dan Gurney and A.J. Foyt. Clark had been beaten to the pole by Foyt in an updated Lotus 34. This defeat began a duel that would leave the rest of the field behind. Lap after lap, the two determined drivers vied for position. Foyt's challenge ended at Lap 116 and there was no one putting the heat on Clark. Clark drove #82 to a walk-away victory at a record speed of 150.686 mph. It was the first Indianapolis victory for a rear-engine car, the first for a British car, and the first for a foreign driver in almost 50 years! |
The 1966 Indy 500 race was described as the most fantastic, confused and incredible 500 by The Indianapolis Star. Dan Gurney qualified his All American Racers Eagle in a disappointing 19th position. Before the leaders had completed the first turn of the first lap, Billy Fosters car struck the rear of Gordon Johncocks car and triggered a 16-car crash, eliminating eleven cars including Gurneys. |
The long awaited 1977 Indianapolis 500 winning A.J. Foyt/Gilmore Coyote model is here. Foyt's fourth Indy victory is celebrated because he was the first driver to win the Memorial Day Classic four times, and it's much more than that. The Bob Riley-designed Coyote chassis was built and prepared by A.J. Foyt, Jr. and his crew, including A.J. "Tony" Foyt, Sr. |
