Now that our Indy Car season is done which makes me sad, here is a look at the 1995 CART race at the Milwaukee Mile. The Miller Genuine Draft 200 was held on June 4th 1995, the weekend after the Indy 500 which was traditionally when they ran here in Milwaukee.
These cars were fast and sounded so great! Plus, I think one of my favorite liveries of a race car is the car of Christian Fittipaldi seen here. It has a bit of the Brazilian flag and his helmet is awesome too.
Some good memories here with Bobby Rahal, Stefan Johansson, Christian Fittipaldi, Al Unser Jr, Jeff Andretti, Emerson Fittipaldi and more. I remember using actual film in my cameras then. It was Kodak's Extar 25. It was a slow film but the colors were great.
Paul Tracy won the race with Teo Fabi second and this was the old Milwaukee Mile with the old grandstands. Good times!
Enjoy a look back.
Thanks,

This year The Drive was held at Road America on August 26, 2022. It is a wonderful track day and this year all of the proceeds went to the Cody Unser First Step Foundation.
Cody Unser is the founder of the foundation that raises awareness of Transverse Myelitis which unfortunately she has had since the sixth grade in 1999. I was never aware of this terrible condition that has Cody paralyzed below her chest.
She has worked at educating people about this condition and strives to help those affected by it. You can read more about it in the attached brochure or at www.codyfirststep.org.
The photos of our fun day at the track with her father Al Unser Jr. and Josh Bilicki are included here. There are also photos of all the participants who had great weather for a fun day with Al and Josh.
Come join us next year!!
Thanks,
