Ethanol wins another Indy car race. Actually, driver Dan Wheldon won the race. He’s getting to be regular at this. It was a great race with very little incidents. The ethanol car driven by Jeff Simmons came in tenth so way to got Jeff. I didn’t post much here this weekend since I’ve doing a lot of photography and interviews. …
Jeff Simmons After Qualifying
It’s the end of the day for me here at Kansas Speedway. The Indy car qualifying is over now and Jeff Simmons got through it okay. His qualifying time is 210.994 MPH. That ethanol fuel definitely has a kick. After they qualify the drivers all come by the IRL Bull Pen for pics and interviews. Of course I interviewed Jeff. …
Ethanol Fuel Tankers
Special tankers are on location here at Kansas Speedway to fill the Indy Cars with ethanol. These are set up right next to the regular fueling station. It’s just one of the challenges the IRL has to deal with in making this season’s conversion to all ethanol fuel. 2007 Kansas Lottery Indy 300 Photo Album
Danica Patrick Press Conference
I don’t know if you’re a Danica fan or not but some AgWired readers are. Danica was part of an Indy Racing League press conference on Friday. She got most of the questions.

Final Race Car Tune Ups
It looks like we’ll get a little rain out here at Kansas Speedway. But it’s going to clear up by tomorrow. I think it’s going to be a busy weekend here as we get ready for IRL and 100% ethanol fuel action on Sunday. This is what’s going on today. Tweaking the cars. The drivers get 2 practice sessions tomorrow …
Multi-media Ethanol Promotion Day

We braved the cold temperatures to bring some joy and information into the lives of consumers who came out to get some reduced price gas containing ethanol. Team Ethanol car driver Jeff Simmons was on hand to …
E Energy Adams Live Webcam
After putting a link to E Energy Adams in my last ZimmCast post I took a closer look at their website and found out I could take a closer look at their ethanol plant under construction. If you’ve ever wanted to watch an ethanol plant being built, well now you can. They’ve got a very cool live webcam set up …
Ethanol, EPIC and Indy
This past weekend I got to spend some time in the home state attending the XM Satellite Radio Indy 300. It was historic because it was the first race powered by 100% ethanol fuel. No matter who won, ethanol won. In fact, if you checked out the coverage on ESPN2 they called it the Ethanol Indy 300. While I was …
Dan Wheldon & Ethanol Win Race
Well, my man Jeff Simmons may not have won the race but ethanol still came out a big winner. Did any of you watch the ESPN coverage? I’ve heard that they spent lots of time talking about the fuel. Here’s the winner of the first Indy car race of the year, Dan Wheldon. It’s the third time in a row …
