This car once durning summer tire test was the fastest car at Indy at 172.621. Things have changed.
Also somewhere is a picture of O.J. Simpson sitting in this car while we were building it in the Avon, In. shop. That shop is the red brick garage behind the dealership at CR 525 & 36 in Preswick.
This was the last Laycock Mongoose built by Dave Laycock, my brother, me, Joe Silnas, Bill Spangler, Joe McKinney and Randy Binki.
Those were good days. You never knew who would be in the shop hanging out drinking beer and vodka at the end of the day.
Hard to believe that Indy 500 cars could really be built by Americans in their shop behing their house in those days.
Thanks Al great to see your post.
