Bettenhausen, an Indy car owner, his wife, Shirley, and two men were killed when the plane crashed about noon on a farm about 30 miles from Lexington, said Brad Stevens, an executive with Bettenhausen Racing in Indianapolis.
The two men killed were identified as Russ Roberts, a partner in Betenhausen's racing team, and Larry Rangel, an Indiana businessman.
