A good head-on look at Smokey Yunick's famed sidecar from Indianapolis, 1964. Duane Carter was one of the first to shake the car down, but I'm not sure if that's Duane in the car or someone else. This shot really emphasizes how fragile looking the car was. Notice also the huge amount of offset. From an era when unique and odd cars seemed to be introduced every May, and soon forgotten about, this one is still remembered well and talked about nearly 60 years later, and it didn't even make the race.
