Description

Al Unser Snr, Johnny Lightning Colt/Ford, 1970, Indianapolis 500

After missing the 1969 Indy 500 due to motorcycle accident, Al Unser dominated the 1970, Indy 500 starting on pole with a record speed of 170.221 mph and leading the race for 190 of the 200 laps.

A six-car crash caused him to get sideways a couple of times on the resultant oil spill, but also eliminated a lot of competitors, not least his last serious challenger, A.J. Foyt, who popped his clutch trying to avoid a wall of fire from the incident. Al Unser took a great victory at an average speed of 155.749 mph, some 31.8 seconds from second place Mark Donohue.

Edition of 850 lithos ALL signed by Al Unser Snr and the artist. Size: 35.25x26.5.
