Trenton Speedway Indycar races

Trenton Speedway held many Indycar races in it's time, from the late 1950's through the final race in 1979.

Not far from our home, our grandparents often went their to watch local drivers like Mario Andretti, Eddie Sachs, Al Loquasto and Bobby Marshman.

Racer Magazine's Robin Miller linked to a Trenton race in his mailbag this week. We had such a great time watching it so we wanted to share the video of the 1978 Indycar race at Trenton Speedway with our readers.  Thanks Mr. Miller!

Indycar at Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona

Another Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona race is in the history books, and Indycar stars co-drove the winning car for the fifth year in a row. 
Scott Dixon won his second '24 Hours' (first in 2006 teamed with Dan Wheldon) and Tony Kanaan took home his first win at Daytona.

14 of the 33 drivers who started the
2014 Indy 500 were in the field at Daytona.
There were also many other drivers with ties to Indycar or the Mazda Road to Indy Series.

Watching the Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona is always a great start to racing season but it makes us even more anxious for the Indycar season to begin!

A.J. Foyt is 80!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

 

A. J. FOYT

 

Check out this great video showing some other Indycar Legends talking about A.J.

Mario Andretti said, "I don't know if there's anyone that admired him as much as I did."

Bobby Unser, "Probably one of the best race drivers that I ever saw.......I learned a lot from him."
