In 1969, Penske and Donohue raced in their first Indianapolis 500, where Donohue finished seventh, winning the rookie of the year award. Donohue raced at Indianapolis each year following, finishing second in 1970 and 25th in 1971. Donohue won the 1972 Indianapolis 500, driving for Roger Penske. He finished the race in his McLaren-Offy setting a record speed of 162Â mph, which would stand for twelve years. The victory was the first for Penske in the Indy 500. Mark Neary Donohue, Jr. (March 18, 1937-August 19, 1975), nicknamed «Captain Nice», and later «Dark Monohue», was an American racecar driver known for his ability to set up his own race car as well as driving it to victories. Donohue is probably best known as the driver of the 1500+ bhp â€œCan-Am Killer» Ã‚Â Porsche 917-30 and as the winner of the 1972 Indianapolis 500. Cars that Donohue raced include: AMC Javelin, AMC Matador, Chevrolet Camaro, Eagle-Offy, Elva Courier, Ford GT-40 MK IV, Ferrari 250LM, Ferrari 512, Lola T70, Lola T330, Lotus 20, McLaren M16, Porsche 911, Porsche 917/10, Porsche 917/30, Shelby Cobra, and Shelby Mustang GT350R.The 57th 500 Mile International Sweepstakes was held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway on Wednesday, May 30, 1973. The race was held over three days due to rain and suffered two major accidents. After 133 laps (332.5 miles), rain halted the race, and Gordon Johncock was declared the winner. It was the first of two Indy triumphs for Johncock (1973, 1982). Going into the month, the mood was bright and excitement was high for record speeds. Competitors, media, and fans were eagerly anticipating the possibility of breaking the elusive and daunting 200Â mph barrier during time trials. By the end of the month, however, the mood had turned tragic after several incidents. Miserable weather plagued the track throughout the month, and effectively delayed the race for two and a half days. Accidents during the month and during the race took the lives of three competitors (two drivers: Art Pollard and Swede Savage; and one pit crew member, Armando Teran). The terrible accident of Salt Walther on Monday May 28 left him critically injured, and several spectators were also injured, as burning fuel and debris rained into the grandstand. Due to the tragic circumstances, weather problems, rain-shortened finish, and overall glum mood during the month, the 1973 race is widely considered the worst year for the running of the Indianapolis 500. In contemporary accounts, it was called «jinxed» by Dan Gurney, Chris Economaki and Jim McKay. Likewise, national media opinions were highly critical in the aftermath of the race, focusing namely on the lack of safety measures. The circumstances led to sweeping rule changes for 1974, involving wing sizes, turbocharger «boost» settings, fuel capacity, as well as safety improvements to the track itself. Off the track, the Speedway completed construction of its first VIP Suites outside of turn two.
