TWO LEGENDS
Racing legends Mert Lawwill (left)
and Kenny Roberts chat while
passing the time at the Atlanta
Mile in 1973. Controversy clouded
the dusty race, which was called
after just five laps because of poor
track conditions. Mark Brelsford
won, and Roberts clinched the
number one plate, but because
of all the post-race controversy,
Roberts' achievement went
unannounced and without fanfare.
