I forgot a shout out to Michael...he came up with 4 of the 5 driver side stickers...I guessed at the fifth one...Thanks for all the kind words...
Jordan,
Yes it ran with the tape...as it pulls into Victory Lane, you can see the vertical tape pieces trailing on the ground...also, Calvin's shot in "1946 Winner" shows the vertical tape pulled off, but shows white where it was...I forgot to add that the Chet Miller car looks a whole lot like the Sparks...a very interesting video is "Crucible of Speed", made by Firestone...when they discuss tires, they show Shaw's tire test with a VERY dilapidated IMS...they had to pull large weeds from the groove...
Finally, the Hepburn Novi is my favorite one...it is a beautiful blue metallic, with red wheels and seat and gold numbers...in all the videos, Hepburn passes cars like they are almost standing still..he has the fastest time by a coupla' miles an hour, but starts 19th because of Indy's rule about When you qualify...in 12 laps he is leading and pulling away easily...gremlins get it, and the Novi legend is born...
