SPECIAL 2015 004 AMPHOTOSPORTS MAGAZINE USA CLASSIC COMPETITION HISTORIQUE USA BRICKYARD VINTAGE CLASSIC INVITATIONAL INDIANAPOLIS Du 10 au 14 juin

Second en importance parmi les organisateurs de courses historiques aux Etats Unis, la SVRA (SPORSTCAR VINTAGE RACING ASSOCIATION) propose aux amateurs et aux concurrents un calendrier extrêmement varié et diversifié qui débute en février pour se terminer début novembre. Avec dix-neuf rendez-vous en 2015 dont certains très rapprochés (quatre meetings en juin), les amateurs n’ont pas vraiment le temps de s’ennuyer mais il est vrai que les plateaux proposés et que le nombre de concurrents aptes à participer reste à la démesure des USA. Indianapolis accueillait donc la BRICKYARD VINTAGE CLASSIC INVITATIONAL, neuvième meeting du SVRA 2015, avec un programme des plus complets (essais libres, qualifications et courses) impliquant les groupes 1/3-2, 2, 3-2/4, 5, 6-1, 6-2, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 et PW (Pre-War). A ces douze courses se rajoutaient trois autres courses, l’Indy Legends Charity Pro-Am Race, l’Historic GT / GTP Enduro Race et la Vintage Classic Enduro Race. A noter que la course réservée au groupe cinq ne sera pas disputée.

UNSER FAMILY SPIRIT OF RACE Un hommage était rendu à la famille Unser. Trois frères, Louis Unser Junior (1896 / 1979), Joe Unser (1897 / 1929) et Jerry Unser Senior (1899 / 1967) sont à l’origine d’une saga à la gloire des sports mécaniques aux USA. Si la descendance de Louis Junior et de Joe ne sera pas impliquée, les quatre fils de Jerry Senior, Jerry Junior (1932 / 1959), Louie (1932 / 2004), Bobby (1934) et Alfred (Al) Senior (1939), seront tous impliqué dans le sport automobile et l’histoire ne s’arrête pas là, Johnny (1958) le fils de Jerry Junior, Bobby Junior (1955), Robby (1968) et Jeri (1969) fils et fille de Bobby Senior, Alfred (Al) Junior (1962) fils d’Alfred Junior tout comme Jason Tanner (1981) et Alfred III (1982) petits fils d’Alfred Senior se sont tous fait un nom dans le milieu. Si le nom des Unser est lié aux 500 Miles d’Indianapolis avec neuf victoires, Al Senior (1970, 1971, 1978 et 1987), Bobby (1968, 1975 et 1981) et Al Junior (1992 et 1994), la renommée de la famille s’est également faite sur les pentes de la plus célèbre des courses de côte, le Pikes Peak. Louie (1934, 1936, 1937, 1938, 1939, 1941, 1946, 1947 et 1953), Bobby (1956, 1958, 1959, 1960, 1961, 1962, 1963, 1966 et 1968), Al Senior (1964 et 1965), Al Junior (1983), Robby (1988, 1989, 1990, 1992, 1994 et 2004) et Jeri (2003) ont tous remporté cette épreuve que ce soit au classement absolu ou dans diverses classes.

Le Clan à Indy – Robby, Bobby, Al Jr., Al Sr et Johnny – Al Senior au Volant de la voiture de Johnny – Les Unser et d’autres vétérans d’Indy.
