Read his autobiography a few years ago. Quite a guy.

Since I recently reread Unfair Advantage I was thinking about getting that book - then I saw the price.

1955 was a terrible year for racing, then I was born. surprise

Pretty sure he was in a couple of the Mexican Road Races as well with other family members.

Funny, I'm reading BS Levy's The Fabulous Trash Wagon and just finished the chapter at the Indy 500 a couple days ago. 

Never heard of Vukovich until then because I'm not well versed in Indy.
