Twelfth 500-Mile Speedway Grind -- May 30, 2024

Indianapolis Times, 31-May-1924

100 years ago today, on 30-May-1924, LL Corum and Joe Boyer both won the twelfth Indianapolis 500 in a Duesenberg racing car. Owner Fred Duesenberg was not happy with the positions of his cars at about 250 miles and he had them both pull in and had Boyer take over Corum's car, with the instruction to win or destroy the car.
