The annual race the weekend after the Indy 500 was always at the Milwaukee Mile for many years.

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,

Ok, I promise that this is the last blog on the 1990 CART race at the Milwaukee Mile!

I finally scanned all the film, and I just kept coming across some good memories of good times in Indy car racing!  Here are a few of my favorites.

Michael and Mario Andretti sitting on the pit wall having a talk with an engineer.

A. J. Foyt and Mario on their motor scooters having a discussion about who knows what. Would love to know what it was about. Next to them, is legendary engineer, Jim McGee.

Scott Brayton in his Amway car is no longer with us and the photo of Jeff Andretti is the last photo I took of him racing.

Pancho Carter, Danny Sullivan, Rick Mears and Eddie Cheever are looking good in their cars.

So, enjoy the last look of 1990 at the Milwaukee Mile, when they used a board to list qualifying speeds!!!

Thanks,
