    Hello everyone. This site is a goldmine for historical info and photos. I also feel the same about the “open wheel” version.

    I am looking for some possible ***istance.
    My uncle raced briefly in the USAC stock car division in 1956 under the name “Mike Irish.”
    I know he drove at Milwaukee in 1956 at least once, and was listed in the program on the entrant pages, which I happened to see on a Milwaukee program on ebay months ago. He drove a blue 1956 Mercury. (Knoxville, TN was another track he appeared at).

    Anyone come across a program or the very unlikely photo of his car?
    He is not long for this world and would like show him something from the “good old days.”

    galway, there is a program from the 1956 Milwaukee race on Ebay right now. They want a lot for it, but you should check it out. Oh yeah, welcome from Kenosha.

    Welcome, galway!

    There's a fella outside of Milwaukee that has a huge collection of programs and photos, all for sale. He might even be the guy selling that one on evilbay (I didn't look). He's not exactly cheap, but he might be able to help. His site: http://greenfieldgallery.net/

    Good luck!

    Holy ****, this intro was posted 30 months ago. Why are we still welcoming this guy?
    I hope he found the thing he was looking for before his uncle p***ed, but this page has surely reached its Use-By date.
    Just my $0.02
