Even though the Milwaukee Mile is going through a bit of a tough stretch, the cars that are a part of the track’s history are going to be there this weekend.  The Harry A. Miller Club will be holding their 15th annual “Millers at Milwaukee” vintage Indy Car event on Friday, July 10 and Saturday, July 11.

The purpose of the Harry A. Miller Club is to honor its namesake, Harry A. Miller, probably the most influential American race car designer.  Cars built by Miller won the Indy 500 nine times, and the Offenhauser engine that dominated Indy racing for nearly four decades was a refinement of a Miller design.  Miller cars were known for not only their speed but for their meticulous preparation and finish.

Dana Mecum, of Mecum Auctions, Inc., is the current President of the Harry A. Miller Club.  Mecum Auctions runs the Corvette auction at Bloomington Gold, as well as several other classic car auctions throughout the country.

A complete schedule of events, as well as admission prices, can be seen at the Harry A. Miller Club web site.
