Still alive and well, the oldest living Indy 500 starter. He was an attendee of his Hall of Fame induction in 2004. Both his son and grandson have raced. He fought in World War 2, but he was already interested in the sport as his dad raced. He was without doubt best at midget racing, with many wins. He retired from racing in 1971 after an accident left him with head injuries which took some considerable time to recover from and Chuck had to learn how to walk and talk again.
