Murphy has the distinction cf his firtt winning being a championship i race, when he swirled around the boards of the Los Angeles Bpeedway at the rate of 103 2 miles per hour in a nonstop drive a little more than a year ago. He bested a field of classy drivers and his skill has been a subject of discuss.ou aaa consideration evert since!
