Frank Stallworth Lockhart (March 5, 1903[1] or March 8, 1903[2] – April 25, 1928) was an American racing driver active in the 1920s, considered by many historians to be a legend in the sport on par with Jim Clark, 1960s British World Drivers' Champion.[3] During a "remarkable if all too short" career,[3] Lockhart won numerous races on both dirt and board tracks, and the 1926 Indianapolis 500. In all, he scored nine AAA championship race wins and two vice-championships in two years of competition.[4] Having set a world land speed record at the Muroc dry lake in April 1927, Lockhart was killed during another speed record attempt at Daytona Beach a year later.[5]
