The U.S.A.C. (United States Auto Club) vs. the F-1 guys...some of the greats of that late 1950's era that opened up (more or less) the greater potential of drivers in open wheel cars to try racing overseas. American Jim Rathmann won one of those events and two years later won the 1960 Indianapolis "500". It was a bit of a shame that kind of racing of different drivers and design of race cars did not do well. One major reason was cost. The language barrier was another. At least, "track speed records" were set for awhile.
