    Wikipedia says that Gil Anderson ranked 16th (but did not finish) in the 1912 Indianapolis 500 when his Stutz race car (pictured above) crashed on turn three. Reference: Wikipedia: 1912 Indianapolis 500
  • Cheap Interest said:
    I looked at that Wikipedia article, and it said that the fastest car went 88 mph. Can you imagine going 88 in one of these cars?
