About Sponsor:
Racing Optics, Inc., is a family-owned business founded in Southern California in 1999 by Bart, Steve and Seth Wilson and is now located in Las Vegas. The Wilson family has deep motorsports roots, dating to the 1940s when Dempsey Wilson – Bart and Steve's father – began building and racing roadsters before progressing to the Indianapolis 500, in which he made four starts between 1958-63 against legends such as A.J. Foyt and Parnelli Jones.
About Property:
The IZOD IndyCar Series is the premier level of American open wheel racing. The current championship, founded by Indianapolis Motor Speedway owner Tony George, began in 1996 as a competitor to CART known as the Indy Racing League . Citing CART's increasing reliance on expensive machinery and overseas drivers, George aimed to create a lower-cost alternative. In 2008, the IndyCar Series merged with the Champ Car World Series . The series is sanctioned by IndyCar.
