Ralph Kirkman Mulford (December 28, 1884 – October 23, 1973) was an American racecar driver who participated in the 1911 Indianapolis 500. In 1911 he won the Vanderbilt Cup in Savannah, Georgia. ==Biography== He was born on December 28, 1884 in Brooklyn, New York. Ralph Mulford may have won the 1911 Indianapolis 500. He was given the checkered flag before Ray Harroun, then took 3 more "safety" laps as a precaution. When he finished the third lap, Harroun was already in the winner's circle and Mulford's protests were largely ignored. Mulford was retroactively declared the National Driving Champion for 1911 and 1918. He retired from racing on tracks after 1922 but continued to compete for several more years in hill climbs and, at one time, held the record for both the Mount Washington and Pikes Peak climbs. He died on October 23, 1973 in Asbury Park, New Jersey. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ralph Mulford」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
