Ray Pixley

William Raymond Pixley (1907 Lynden, Washington 30 August 1936 Hammond, Indiana) was an American racecar driver. Primarily a sprint car driver, he drove in the 1936 Indianapolis 500 for Clarence Felker in a Miller that had once sported a V16 engine but at the time was powered by a Miller four-cylinder.[1] It would be his only Championship Car start as he was killed in August of that year in a crash at Roby Speedway in Hammond, Indiana.[2]
