"The Milwaukee Mile Has it All, Big Time Races and Small Town Friendly Manners....it doesn't get better than that." OPJ © Oak Park Journal photos ![]() Dan Peters Sports Editor Car Racing Writer Oak Park Journal ![]() © Oak Park Journal photos by Dan Peters USAC Star J J Yeley Outguns the Field in Midget Race at the Mile by Dan Peters Oak Park Journal With his Nextel Cup debut only weeks away.... driver J J Yeley did what he does best & won the 30 lap shootout saturday in West Allis. His passion for open wheel racing was matched with a great-handling race car Saturday afternoon, July 24 at The Milwaukee Mile. Yeley out handled Dave Steele in the final laps to win by half a car-length in a spirited duel among the three lead drivers including Bobby East. Yeley and Steele swapped the lead five times over the final 16 laps, with early race leader East in hot pursuit. Yeley was one of nine drivers who competed in both the Midget Car Series and USAC Weld Racing Silver Crown Series races, held back-to-back in the afternoon. Yeley, the defending champion in both divisions, looked to be a strong candidate to sweep both races, however a reported loose radiator cap foiled his efforts while leading in the USAC Weld Racing Silver Crown 100-miler. ![]() JJ Yeley Wins USAC Midget Car Series Race
