Prewar Maserati Seen Among Favorites in Indy 509-Mile Race
Ted Horn’s prewar Maserati appears to be the only foreign built car with a real chance to beat modern American racers in the 32nd annual 509 mile Indianapolis sweepstakes on May 31. American cars claim the five fastest qualifying times as Chester Miller and Don Lee’s Mercedes top the list with speeds around 127 mph. Duke Nalon in the Now Grooved piston special posts the fastest qualifying lap at 131.603 mph amid track chatter of potential mechanical trouble.
