After skidding to a stop in Tom McRae's 1938 Indy Speedway racer in downtown Reno, 4-time Indy winner A.J. Foyt blurted out, "I will never drive in any vehicle again with this crazy S.O.B. Tom McRae," really tickling Tom to no end.This is how I will remember Tom: A big crowd, a big flag, and a big heart! Tom McRae passed away in 2005 at the age of 65.
