Bridgestone/Firestone to sponsor Milwaukee Mile

Jan. 14, 2004

Bridgestone/Firestone North American Tire LLC (BFNT) has signed a multi-year deal to supply Bridgestone and Firestone brand tires to the Milwaukee (Wis.) Mile race track.

The Milwaukee Mile will host both Indy Racing League (IRL) events and the Champ Car World Series in 2004.

Each car in the Champ Series will run on Bridgestone Potenzas, say BFNT officials.

Firestone Firehawks will appear on every IRL racer, plus cars taking part in Menards Infiniti Pro Series events.
