Back at that time, the speeds were not only slower, but widely varied during the lap. Now they maintain 220 all the way around, but back then, they might have hit 205 at the end of the straights, but dropped to 170-180 in the turns. Bolt-on wings were still a new entity in 1972.

approx 186mph....trying to get that magical 200mph barrier. He never had a chance at that speed/angle. The walls were very unforgiving during this era of Indy.

Not if you include motorcycle racing under the umbrella of "auto racing." Look up Isle of Man, that could probably be one of the most dangerous forms of racing.

It's the logo from "The Mighty Boosh". Search for it on Google Images. It's weird.
