Here are two photos I took of Rich Vogler exiting over the turn 1-2 wall at Terre Haute in I THINK 1983 (definitely NOT sure of the year) in the King/Powers car during hot laps. Vogler and Steve Kinser in the #37 had been "competing" in hot laps for several laps, each trying to out brave the other in to turn 1. The previous lap, Kinser had bicycled a bit in the corner, but still drove by Vogler, so everyone KNEW Vogler was going to really haul it in next time by. He did, it bicycled and we were all ready with cameras. If I'm not mistaken, Vogler suffered a wrist or arm injury in this accident.
