This was the safest Indianapolis in history, however, only eight racers finished. One of the drivers is Joe James who retired due to transmission issues. Johnny McDowell would not be far behind after he ruptured his fuel tank in the pits on the fifteenth lap. And then three laps later, Mack Hellings pulls off into the pits because of damage to his engine. One of the more dangerous but not brutal moments was done by Mauri Rose who accidentally skid and flipped his car. The winner was Lee Wallard with a time of 3:57:38.05.
