Shaw Misses 500 Mile Memorial Day Classic
Wilbur Shaw, 42, aims to revive his long chase of the Indianapolis 500 after a four-year layoff caused by war. The Akron native, now with Firestone Aviation, recalls a wheel collapse that derailed his bid when leading at mile 420. Shaw has raced 5031 miles in Indy speedway events, a record only behind Berkere and Meyer, and says a return to racing will come when peace returns. He endorses a quick return to competition and a belief the sport will endure beyond wartime hiatus.
