Six more Indianapolis 500 veterans have committed to drive in the Indy Legends Charity Pro-Am race during the Brickyard Vintage Racing Invitational on June 16-18, as just six spots remain in the 33-driver field. Mark Dismore, Pete Halsmer, Richie Hearn, Alex Lloyd, Max Papis and Rick Treadway all will drive in the 45-minute feature race Saturday, June 17 on the 14-turn, 2.439-mile road course at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Dismore, Halsmer and Papis share a special distinction besides starting in the Indianapolis 500. They each have won the Rolex 24 Hours At Daytona, the most prestigious road race in North America. The six new drivers in the field will join 27 other veterans of “The Greatest Spectacle in Racing” driving machines from the Sportscar Vintage Racing Association’s Group 6 class, comprised of 1963-72 vintage Chevrolet Corvettes, Chevrolet Camaros and Ford Mustangs. Race officials may add other Group 6 marques, such as Porsche and Jaguar, for variety. All 33 Indianapolis 500 veterans in the race will be paired with amateur drivers, splitting stints behind the wheel at their discretion. Indy 500 veterans previously entered in the Pro-Am include Al Unser, Al Unser Jr., Jimmy Vasser, Willy T. Ribbs, Sarah Fisher, Davy Jones, Geoff Brabham, Lyn St. James and last year’s A and B Production winners, Robby Unser and Paul Tracy. All the Indianapolis 500 veterans will practice in a special track session Friday, June 16. They will also be available for autographs and pictures during the pre-race fan pit walk just before their feature race Saturday. In addition to the Pro-Am, there will be a festival of other activities at the Brickyard Vintage Racing Invitational, including the Hagerty Insurance “shine and show” car corral, a “Celebration of Vintage Motorcycles” with vintage motorcycle racing and displays and 500-plus vintage racers ranging more than 100 years of automotive history racing in SVRA Groups 1 through 12. An oval exhibition featuring a race car show of judged competition for the A.J. Watson and Sir Jack Brabham trophies led by IMS historian Donald Davidson also will take place. The professional Trans Am series will compete as the feature race Sunday, June 18. Heading the pack will be series champion Amy Ruman, who has won the title the last two years.
