It was forty years ago today that we lost a very talented and nice young man in an accident during a USAC sprint car race at Winchester, IN. James McElreath was on way through the ranks of USAC and had narrowly missed earning a starting spot for the Indianapolis 500 in May of 1977. I will never forget that tragic day.
