This week's blog takes us back to CART racing in 1990 at Elkhart Lake's Road America.

These were the days when Porsche was into Indy cars, and had Teo Fabi as it's driver.

Alfa Romeo was also on the grid along with Cosworth and Chevy and more.

Competition was good with the different engine manufacturers.

Roger Penske had Danny Sullivan, Rick Mears and Emerson Fittipaldi who had won the championship in 1989. A three car team was not normal in 1990 like it is today.

So, take a look at Eddie Cheever, Didie Theys and Al Unser Jr. in the good old days. A.J. Foyt was still racing then too.

After taking a second look, a few of these photos are from 1989 at Road America! Still good old stuff to look at!

Get ready for the 100th running of the Indy 500!

Thanks,
