George Mason (racing driver)


George Rider Mason was an American racing driver. A Red Cross ambulance driver in World War I, Mason was killed in action, or as the result of pneumonia.
Mason has the distinction of being the first and, until Greg Ray in the 2003 race, only driver to field a car in the Indianapolis 500 carrying the number 13 over the first 86 years of the event. From 1926–2002, usage of No. 13 was not permitted, and generally avoided by competitors due to superstitions.
