1978 Indianapolis 500 Bump Day (WRTV) 

-Although ABC aired nationally coverage of "Bump Day" at the Indy 500, WRTV locally was airing their own coverage too of events. PA announcer Tom Carnegie is part of the coverage along with pole-sitter Tom Sneva.
-It's during this coverage that a controversy erupted when veteran driver Jim Hurtubise clashed with officials who wouldn't let him attempt to qualify his front-engine car for the race because it wasn't competitive and had no chance of making the field. Hurtubise then caused a disruption that delayed the qualifying attempt of driver Bob Harkey. While that incident is commented on, WRTV cameras didn't catch some of the more colorful things Hurtubise did as he defied the officials (and then got himself banned from the track for the rest of the month).
