Believe it or not, these two cars raced at Indianapolis twenty years apart. Chan you tell which one ran in 1948 and which in 1968? Yeah, it's pretty obvious that the Kurtis Kraft roadster is older than the Lotus turbine. What's even more amazing is that the Lotus is almost 50 years old!


Twenty years of progress
