I lived in an apartment complex in Indianapolis for a short time when I was a kid. Gordon Johncock stayed in the apartment building next to ours during the month of May. He used to mess with us kids all the time. Nice guy. We came home one evening and there was an open topped trailer out in the parking lot with a tarp over it. Gordon was out there doing something and me and my dad walked over and sure enough, his Indy car was on the trailer. He pulled the tarp back and we checked it out.
We also lived in Speedway (IN) for awhile and we were driving past the Holiday Inn one afternoon and some ol' nasty guy was working on a dragster in the parking lot, so my dad whipped the car in and we got out and went over to see what he was doing. It was Don Garlits.
Ahhh..the good ol' days...
