Artifact Overview
Defective tires ended Jim Clark's run at the 1964 Indianapolis 500. At 47 laps into the race, the tread separated from Clark's left rear tire, starting a chain reaction that destroyed his left rear suspension. Clark's teammate, Dan Gurney, pulled out of the race after 110 laps, fearing the same problem. A.J. Foyt took the checkered flag.
