The 1982 Indianapolis 500 was unique for a number of reasons, it was the first year that ground-effect cars were to race around the infamous circuit, the 1st and 2nd place finishers were separated by just 0.16 seconds, which was the closest finish in Indy 500 history up until this point.
This classic Carroll Shelby tee by Wicked Quick is 100% designed and made in the USA, each one is printed on US Slub Cotton (that’s a lightweight, summer friendly type of cotton).
