Racing season has begun with practice laps being run at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway!

Nascar doesn't count with me, and yes, we have had a few Indy car races, but this year we have the 100th running of the Indy 500!

Here are some old photos from the late 1980's and 1990 with some different forms of real racing!

Check out Rick Mears, Emerson Fittipaldi, Geoff Brabham, Bill Seebold and a few other folks way back when and get ready for the 100th Indy 500. All of these guys were the best in their race craft.

Who are you picking for the winner if the Indy 500? It's early yet but I'm going with Scott Dixon.

Thanks,

The next few weeks of blogs will make my boat racing friends happy!

This week, we feature the Seebold family racing at the St. Louis Grand Prix in 1990 and 1991. Bill Seebold along with his sons, Mike and Tim, are comparable to the Andretti family in Indy cars.

They live in the St. Louis area and the St. Louis Grand Prix is their home race.

In boat racing, the St. Louis Grand Prix is equal to the Indy 500 or the big Daytona 500 race for NASCAR.

Bud Light was the main sponsor for many years of the St. Louis Grand Prix. Budweiser's home is St. Louis and this race is BIG. It is known worldwide with racers coming from all over the globe.

So, enjoy a few photos of the Seebold family racing in St. Louis in 1990 and 1991. The next few weeks will feature other boat racing teams and other boat races.

Thanks,

Rich Zimmermann
