BOBBY UNSER 1968 RISLONE SPECIAL BELL HELMET

In 1968 everyone had all but conceded that one of the innovative Lotus Turbines would be pulling into victory lane. On race day Bobby Unser gave the Turbines a run for the money. Joe Leonard driving the #60 STP Lotus held a comfortable lead until a late race yellow slowed the field with just 9 laps to go. When the green flag was waved to restart the race Leonard's Turbine slowed with a broken fuel shaft and Unser went on to capture the 1st of what would be 3 Indy 500 victories in his career.
