Wayne Weiler

Wayne Weiler (born 9 December 1934 and died 13 October 2005) was an American racing driver who participated in the Indianapolis 500 in 1960 and 1961. His participation in the 1960 Indianapolis 500 counted towards the 1960 Formula One Season, but he failed to finish the race and scored no points towards the championship.
Weiler began his career dirt track racing in 1951. He began competing in the USAC Championship Car series in 1958, finishing in the top ten on ten occasions throughout his career and finishing as high as 3rd.
He raced in the 1960 Indianapolis 500, but crashed halfway through the race. The following year, he also raced in the event but again failed to finish the race due to mechanical issues.
A couple of weeks after the 1961 Indianapolis 500, Weiler suffered head injuries while racing in a sprint car race in Indiana. He returned to racing after his recovery, but never on the national level, racing mostly in local races in his hometown. He retired from racing in 1973.
After his career behind the wheel, he remained active as a dirt track car owner until his death in 2005.
