Indy '65 the untold story
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WFZKcYH-uw
Fifty years ago - on May 31, 1965 - Memorial Day in the USA - Jim Clark secured the first half of his historic achievement with Team Lotus. In becoming the first "Foreigner" to win at Indy since Dario Resta in 1916 - and the first to win in a rear-engined car - Clark set the scene for a double-whammy that will never be repeated. Clark would go on to secure the F1 World Championship that same year with a stunning series of wins but in May, 50 years ago, all his focus was on Indy - on rocking the establishment and changing the way the Americans went racing. Here, for the first time, Jim Clark's mechanic for the month of May - Australia's Jim Smith - looks back at that epic time. A marine engineer who captured the attention of Colin Chapman while he was back-packing in the UK, Jim is a no-nonsense Aussie who perfectly complemented the brilliance of Clark and Chapman. He remained a friend of Jim''s long after he left Team Lotus and today resides in Sydney, where we spoke. For more images of Jim Clark's 1965 Month of May, visit http://peterwindsor.com
