A slow Friday night so let's do some trivia. Name the four Indianapolis 500 winners who started the 1971 Hoosier Hundred. Which one won the event?

How about:

Johnny Rutherford
A.J. Foyt
Mario Andretti
Al Unser - The Winner

This is a guess, even though I was there. Memory + Old = :doh:

Your memory on this is quite good, Marv! At the time of this race Unser had just won his 2nd Indy 500 in a row and 2nd of his four total (70-71-78-87), Foyt had won 3 of his 4 (61-64-67-77), Andretti had won his only Indy (69), and Rutherford had yet to win any of his 3 (74-76-80).

1982 is correct, Richie. It was Foyt's last appearance in the dirt cars.
