Comments:
Complete Radio broadcast of the Tragic 1955 Indy 500. Bill Vukovich seemed on his way to an unprecedented third straight win when a tragic crash took his life on the 55`th lap. Bob Sweikert took the lead and finished as the winner. Amazing record of the event and how professionally the broadcast team featuring Sid Collins handled the wreck and aftermath.
