I was sitting in history class today and was amazed when the teacher said something about the indy 500. since we were talking about world war 1. I've read alot about him online today, but i cant seem to find anything about how he did in a race car. All i have read is he raced in the 1st indy 500 and bought the track later in life for $700,000. so my question is

What do some of you know about this Hero?
