Indianapolis, IN — Vintage Indy’s 2021 event lineup features three major appearances that include a road course, street course and an oval. All of the organization’s on-track events will again be paced by the Johnny Lightning Special-inspired Miles Ahead MINI John Cooper Works Hardtop driven by two-time Indianapolis 500 Winner Al Unser Jr.

 
The iconic cars will return to Road America at Elkhart Lake June 18-20 in companion with IndyCar for the Rev Group Grand Prix.
 
July 24-25 will see a first-time appearance for Vintage Indy at the 39th Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix. Vintage Indy will run exhibition laps on the scenic Schenley Park street course, provide a historic paddock open to fans and feature member cars on display at surrounding social events.
 
With the St. Louis Gateway Arch in the background, Vintage Indy will make its fourth annual pilgrimage to WWT Raceway in Madison, Illinois for the Aug. 19-21 IndyCar Bommarito 500. Multiple on-track sessions are planned for each day and all fans will have complimentary access with their admission to the legendary vintage paddock.
 
Founded in 2017 and a member of the Vintage Motorsports Council, Vintage Indy is dedicated to the history and preservation of Indianapolis championship cars.

Update on the 2021 Indianapolis Historic Racing Exhibition:  

 

Due to the ongoing uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, state and local guidelines, and the need to provide our vintage racing partners with advance notice, IMS and IMS Museum officials have made the difficult decision to cancel the 2021 IHRE at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

 

We look forward to bringing the event back, better than ever, into the traditional Indianapolis 500 weekend schedule in 2022.

We talked about it, but it don't look like were taking the car to RA.. Prepped and ready for Indy, but of course as mentioned, it has been canceled. Haven't spoken Mike Lashmett in a bit, but hoping they have an event at Milwaukee this year.
