(N.Z.P.A.-Reuter—Copyright) INDIANAPOLIS, May 7.
The world champion racing driver, J. Brabham arrived at the Indianapolis speedway with his Cooper yesterday. Weather permitting Brab. ham would give the new four-cylinder car its first shakedown run in preparation for the race, United Press International reported. The Cooper car was about 2001 b lighter than the conventional American fourcylinder roadster. The Cooper team hoped that Brabham would be able to make up in the turns what he loses to the Americans in speed on the straights.
