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
I am an Indy native and you have about ten years on me, but I don't ever remember hearing of a high bank pavement joint in Indy - enlighten me.
