Assuming Dickson ran at Harmony during a URC sprint car event.

That would place Dickson into the Indy 500 / Harmony club along with possibly Mario!

Mario never ran Harmony. Al Loquasto and possibly Wally Dallenbach are possible Indy 500 starters, Steve Krisiloff is a definite, he has a win at Harmony.

Appears the only two drivers to race at Harmony and in the Indy 500 are Larry Dickson and Steve Krisiloff.  Dickson won the 25-lap URC sprint car feature on July 2, 1965.  Krisiloff finished fourth in a Sports Car Owners and Drivers Association (SCODA) 10-lap modified sports car feature on May 28, 1965.

Al Loauasto did have a private test at the track with his USAC sprint car, photographer Bruce Craig documented the test with a couple of photos of Al posed in the car positioned between the dogleg and turns four and five.

Both Mario Andretti and Wally Dallenbach have told me they did not race at Harmony.  Wally did say that he was at the track once with Will Cagle.

Thanks Rick and Greg; I was not sure if Mario had ever raced at Harmony. How did Krisoloff skip my mind? I saw Steve race his sports car at Old Bridge in the early 60's.
