The Milwaukee Indyfest is this Saturday.
We sure wish we lived nearby and could go.
They've got an Indy Lights Race, a Pro Mazda Race, and a Rickshaw Championship, and even though we're not sure what exactly that is, it would be fun to find out.
Plus they've got free carnival rides and lots of other fun looking stuff to do.
The neat thing about Milwaukee is that it's the oldest operating motor speedway in the world. They've had at least one race there a year since 1903, except for during World War II.
Our grandparents lived in Wisconsin a long time ago, and apparently they went to the race at Milwaukee because we found an old program from there from 1963, so we'll share some photos from it.
