The first two 500 mile races at Indianapolis were won by American drivers and cars - Ray Harroun in a Marmon Wasp in 1911 and Joe Dawson in a National in 1912. Who was the next American born driver to win the 500? And when was the next win in an American built car?

Wilcox in 1919 is correct, Jim! Miller/Duesenburg is incorrect.

Does this have anything to do with the recent classes you attended that were taught by a certain Mr. Davidson?

Impress him with the fact that a Ford or a Dodge have never won the 500. A Chevrolet has.

I'm just kidding you Dwight. No hard feelings. How was the class? Did you enjoy it?
