Description

The 1970s used to be the last creative decade on the great Speedway. The spirit of innovation used to be still strong within the 1970s, which Ludvigsen calls “The Last Creative Decade” on the great Speedway.The turbocharged decade witnessed the extinction of the venerable four-banger Offy and the upward thrust of the Cosworth V-8, which took Indy racing into the 1980s. A tire war and advanced aerodynamics saw speeds upward thrust so sensationally that, as Ludvigsen says in his insightful Introduction, “The 1971 pole-winning speed do not need qualified a motive force for the 1972 race!” Revealing intimate main points of the last progressive and experimental decade on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, this book is a should for fans of the sector’s greatest motor race.
