Krause, Bill (USA)

b 1933 (Compton, California)

Had a father involved in midget racing who ran a machine shop, so started midget racing at 18. Won a 1955 midget title, but had a couple of big accidents, so his father bought a Jaguar D-Type 3.4 litre, with which he won his first sportscar race starting from 13th.
Krause bored the engine to 3.8 litres, and entered the Riverside Times Grand Prix, finishing third behind Chuck Daigh and Dan Gurney. Behra, who finished fourth, commented that Billy was the best driver there, from a field of GP, Indy and top SCCA race drivers. For 1959, Krause raced Jack Brumby's Maserati 450S, finishing 2nd at Pomona. The Jaguar was upgraded with a Chevrolet engine, and raced this as well as a new birdcage Maserati for Brumby, winning the Times GP ahead of Stirling Moss and Dan Gurney in Lotus 19's. The car was sold in 1961, but Krause was hired in the Autumn of 1962 to develop the new Shelby Cobra. However, Mickey Thompson offered him a ride in a Corvette, with the offer of a drive in the Indy 500, so he switched teams. Due to GM politics, he only raced once, during the Daytona Speedweek of 1963. He did attempt to qualify for the Indy 500, but after the engine let go and sprayed oil in his face at 200mph, Krause lost confidence and went home to California, opening a Honda dealership. He raced only sporadically thereafter.
