My last blog was on the qualifying for the Milwaukee Mile Hy-Vee 250 races held August 31 and September 1. Today's blog is on the two races that weekend.  Conor Daly made the most passes EVER done at the Milwaukee Mile during a race even with 42 passes!

Pato O'Ward won the first race with Will Power and Conor Daly following behind. Ten more laps and I think Will Power would have caught Pato.

Scott McLaughlin won the second race with Scott Dixon and Colton Herta close behind.

It was fun, the weather was good and there were not too many accidents.

The crowd of 42,000+ enjoyed the nicely refurbished Milwaukee Mile which is still getting more improvements in the future thanks to the state of Wisconsin and Roger Penske Indy Car Corporation.

On a personal health update I will get a neph tube placed in my back going to my left kidney on Wednesday. Cancer cells are back and after the neph tube heals for a month I get 6 infusions of BCG. Hope this kicks it's ass and gets rid of it.

Racing season is done and cameras and lenses are getting cleaned so bring this treatment on!

Be well all and enjoy a look at the races a few weeks back.

Thanks,

Rich Zimmermann
