His Stevens-Miller was powered by a marine engine and he had already set a new record for the flying mile for a four-cylinder engine (145mph). It proved quick at Indy as well and\u00a0Cantlon\u00a0qualified on the outside of the front row before finishing second with Herman\u00a0Schurch\u00a0completing the last 53 laps as his relief driver.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Success in the AAA National Championship\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Cantlon\u2019s\u00a0first\u00a0Indycar\u00a0victory followed that summer on the Akron board track and he finished as runner-up to Billy Arnold in the 1930 National Championship. His Bowes Seal Fast Miller scored a couple of pole position-to-chequered\u00a0flag victories at Altoona in 1931 in what was that board track\u2019s final championship meeting. Out of action for much of 1932 with a broken leg, he scored a fourth and final\u00a0Indycar\u00a0victory at Syracuse in 1934 when his Weil-Miller averaged 79.888mph.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Out of luck at Indianapolis\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>He continued to be out of luck at Indy however and he was running second late in the 1935 race before fading to sixth at the finish. He was robbed of third position a year later when a faulty head gasket caused him to run out of fuel five laps from the end. Like so many in those austere times,\u00a0Cantlon\u00a0raced for money and competed wherever prize money dictated. That meant he did not always appear in\u00a0Indycar\u00a0races, often preferring a better paying midget event elsewhere.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Return after World War II\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>He had moved to Indianapolis where he also worked as a used car salesman before buying a local bar.\u00a0Cantlon\u00a0returned to the Indy 500 when the Speedway reopened in 1946 and qualified a\u00a0Snowberger-Offenhauser\u00a0in fifth position a year later.<\/p>\n<p>Starter motor problems left\u00a0Cantlon\u00a0running last early in the 1947 race and he was trying to\u00a0unlap\u00a0himself when the leader Bill Holland spun in Turn 1.\u00a0Cantlon\u00a0crashed into the outside wall in avoidance and was killed instantly. Marshals could not remove the wreckage and his car remained lodged against the wall for the remaining 160 laps as a\u00a0grim reminder of this sport\u2019s ultimate price.<\/p>\n\n
