Dario Resta 1916

Dario Resta's best years in racing were his two big seasons in America back in 1915 and 1916. During 1916 he won the Vanderbilt Cup, the AAA season points championship and, his crowning achievement and ticket to immortality - a victory in the greatest race of all time and forever, the Indianapolis 500. An asterisk applies, I guess, but not a big one: this was the only Indianapolis Classic that was scheduled for less than 500 miles - specifically 300 miles.
