Saw Eddie one night, on the high banked pavement track in Indy, he got over on the left side, some how, and went bouncing up the banking, and his helmet hitting the track, and bouncing like a basket ball. Got out, and did the usual "Eddie Sachs" bow! Bob
Wow, TQ! I would do anything I could to pry that film out of that camera and develop it!!! Don't throw it away!
