Mel Kenyon and Gary Bettenhausen.
Both of them overcame injuries that would have ended most people careers. Both are always great to talk to (the few times I have talked with Gary and the numerous times I have talked with Mel).
Even thoguh he died years before I was even born (or thought of) Bill Vukovich. I ahev read his biography, news paper articles, and seen lots of footage of him racing. He is a true Americaan success story and sadly I often feel he doesn't get the recognition he rightfully deserves. If you have never read his biography, I would tell you it's a must read for anyone who is a race fan.
