Just as an aside, race speeds at one time fell to 200 + single digits. What I do think is that Kirkwood was not looking forward that far. He had time to avoid that crash, IMHO. Checking data on the steering wheel is not a good idea at speed in the short chute, if that had anything to do with it.
This was what, Kirkwoods second year at Indy? Still not much race experience.
