Turbine car rivals Jones in Memorial Day 500 race
Indianapolis AP report notes Parnelli Jones and Mario Andretti pace the trials with turbine power from STP Studebaker. Andretti fastest qualifier at 188.982 mph in a Brawster Uawk Ford. Gurney and Jones fear the turbine may run all day at near qualifying speed while piston engines curb nitro methane to protect pistons. Granatelli defends turbine’s 550 hp, denying 1,000 hp claims as the Turbocar challenges Grand Prix style rear engines.
