Race Circuit Has Changed Nine Times Since First Race in 1975
The Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach race circuit has changed considerably since Brian Redman took the race's first
checkered flag in 1975 directly across from a seedy collection of X-rated theaters and abandoned buildings!
Today, the 1.97-mile, 11-turn circuit winds its way around and under gleaming hotels, a famed Convention and
Entertainment Center, a popular Aquarium and the Pike at Rainbow Harbor complex.
That first race circuit measured 2.02 miles in length and featured the famous "Linden Leap," when cars would barrel down
Ocean Blvd., then turn hard right onto Linden - occasionally becoming airborne in the process! The circuit stayed at 2.02
miles until 1982, when the Queen's Hairpin gave way to a series of new turns to accommodate construction of the Hyatt
Hotel, upping the circuit length to 2.129 miles. Construction altered it again in 1983, to 2.035 miles, taking the cars off
Ocean Blvd. for the first time.
When Indy cars arrived at Long Beach in 1984, the circuit was shortened to 1.67 miles in length, then was shortened
again to 1.586 miles until 1999.
That year, the 25th Anniversary of the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach saw a revamped, 1.85-mile circuit, with a longer
front stretch on Shoreline Drive and new Turn 1, winding past the new Aquarium of the Pacific.
The 2000 race saw the circuit reconfigured to its present format of 1.97 miles and 11 turns.

Team Penske, Announcer Bruce Flanders to Be Inducted Into Long Beach
Motorsports Walk of Fame
LONG BEACH, Calif. (March 30) -- Two legendary names with proud histories at the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach –
Team Penske and Bruce Flanders – will be inducted into the Long Beach Motorsports Walk of Fame on Thursday, April 14.
The public is invited to the free, 11th annual induction ceremony, which will be held at 11:00 a.m. on South Pine Avenue
in front of the Convention Center, along the route of the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach.
"Team Penske and Bruce Flanders have made legendary contributions to the field of motorsports, and they have truly
earned their place on the Motorsports Walk of Fame," said Mayor Robert Garcia, who will be presenting medallions to the
honorees. “These two honorees have delighted race fans for years, here in Long Beach and around the world."
Penske Racing, Inc. is the most successful Indy car racing team in history, and has five victories at the Toyota Grand Prix
of Long Beach: 1993, 1994, 1995, 2001 and 2012. In 2016, Penske Racing, Inc. celebrates its 50th season, and enters
the year having amassed 177 race wins, 13 Indy car championships and 16 Indianapolis 500 victories. Under the
leadership of Roger Penske, many of Indy car’s greatest names have driven for the team, including Mark Donohue, Tom
Sneva, Mario Andretti, Bobby Unser, Rick Mears, Danny Sullivan, Al Unser, Emerson Fittipaldi, Al Unser Jr., Paul Tracy, Gil
de Ferran, Sam Hornish Jr. and Helio Castroneves.
Bruce Flanders, known as “The Voice of the Grand Prix,” has announced every race here since 1978. He was born into a
family steeped in motorcycles and racing, and in 1973 set a record on the Bonneville Salt Flats for the fastest production
motorcycle at 141.703 mph. The record stood for seven years. Flanders began his announcing career in 1969 at the
Orange County Fairgrounds, and his deep baritone voice has boomed across the loudspeakers at Irwindale Speedway,
Laguna Seca Raceway, the Caesars Place Grand Prix, Watkins Glen, Wembley Stadium in England, Daytona Motor
Speedway, California Speedway, and many more.
“We’re delighted to be able to induct Team Penske and Bruce into the Long Beach Motorsports Walk of Fame,” said Jim
Michaelian, president and CEO of the Grand Prix Association of Long Beach. “They have both contributed mightily to the
success of our event and join an illustrious list of honorees who have preceded them over the past nine years.”
The Walk of Fame medallions include renditions of the racers' cars and their major achievements in motorsports. Mr.
Flanders’ medallion will include a microphone. For more information, visit www.lbmotorsportswof.com.
The induction ceremony kicks off the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach weekend, which brings more than 180,000 people
to Downtown Long Beach. For more information, visit www.gplb.com, call (888) 827-7333, or follow the race on Facebook

2015 Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach:
Scott Dixon Gets His First Win in Long Beach
Scott Dixon, who entered the weekend with just one top-five finish in eight Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach starts, won
the 41st edition of the historic street race by 2.2221 seconds over Verizon P1 Award winner Helio Castroneves.
Dixon's victory was his 36th overall, breaking a tie with Bobby Unser for fifth on the all-time Indy car list. Al Unser is fourth
with 39 victories. It was the 98th Indy car victory for team owner Chip Ganassi.
When Dixon beat Castroneves off pit lane on the first service stop on Lap 29 to take the lead, he wasn't to be denied in a
race that had only one caution flag during its 80 laps.
During the crucial pit stop, Castroneves was held in his pit box by chief mechanic Travis Law to avoid contact with the
incoming No. 10 NTT Data Chip Ganassi Racing Chevrolet driven by Tony Kanaan. The extra second was critical. And
though the crew of the No. 3 Auto Club of Southern California Chevrolet had a blazing second and final stop on Lap 55,
Dixon was six-tenths of a second ahead of Castroneves on his out lap entering Turn 1.
"This is huge," Dixon said. "I love the event, but as far as coming here and doing well it hadn't been on that list. That pit
stop exchange definitely helped us get to the lead but the car was fast and all we had to do was maintain that lead."
Castroneves forged his second consecutive runner-up finish and 37th of his career to tie Bobby Rahal for second on the
all-time list (Mario Andretti with 56 is first). He closed to three points of Team Penske teammate and championship frontrunner Juan Pablo Montoya as the Verizon IndyCar Series heads to Barber Motorsports Park for the April 26 Honda Indy
Grand Prix of Alabama.
Montoya, who won in season opener at St. Petersburg, placed third in the No. 2 Verizon Team Penske Chevrolet. Simon
Pagenaud finished fourth in the No. 22 Penske Truck Rental Chevrolet and Kanaan also earned his second top-five finish
of the young season.
Dixon also led the most race laps with 44 to Castroneves' 31.

Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach Highlights, 1975-2015
1975
More than 46,500 fans invaded the streets of Long Beach to watch Brian Redman capture the inaugural edition of the
Long Beach Grand Prix in Jim Hall's T-332 Boraxo Lola. The win - by 29.95 seconds over Vern Schuppan (Jorgensen
Eagle) - clinched the F5000 title for Redman. Eppie Wietzes was third in a Formula Racing Lola.
1976
Polesitter Clay Regazzoni steered his Ferrari clear of early-race attrition and went on to win the first Formula One race held
on the streets of Long Beach. More than 60,000 fans saw Regazzoni's Ferrari teammate, Niki Lauda, finish second and
Patrick Depailler (ELF Tyrrell) third.
1977
The race produced the famous "James Hunt airborne" image - as well as Mario Andretti's win, the first by an American in
a U.S. Grand Prix. Andretti (John Player Lotus) edged Lauda (Ferrari) by .773 seconds before 65,000 in the race that
helped solidify the race's future. Jody Scheckter (Wolf Ford) was third.
1978
A mid-race mistake by Gilles Villeneuve handed the lead - and the win - to Ferrari teammate Carlos Reutemann, who went
on to beat Mario Andretti (John Player Lotus) to the checkered flag by 11 seconds in a race that started on Shoreline Drive,
rather than Ocean Blvd., for the first time. Patrick Depailler again finished third in the ELF Tyrrell.
1979
Villeneuve was fast qualifier in his Ferrari and ran a mistake-free race for the victory as only nine F/One cars completed
the race. It was the debut of the soon-to-be-dominant 1.5-liter turbo Renaults, which practiced and qualified but did not
race because of broken driveshafts. Jody Scheckter (Ferrari) and Alan Jones (Saudia/Williams) shared the podium with
Villeneuve.
1980
Brazil's Nelson Piquet was fastest right off the truck, being first to break the 1:18 mark in qualifying (1:17.694). Piquet
piloted his Parmalat Brabham to the fastest race lap ever (1:19.83) and went on to a 49-plus-seconds win over Ricardo
Patrese and his Penthouse Arrows, with Emerson Fittipaldi third in a Skol/Fittipaldi.
1981
Amid a bitter, behind-the-scenes F/One political squabble, more than 82,000 race day spectators saw Alan Jones in his
Albilad Williams outdistance teammate Carlos Reutemann and Nelson Piquet (Parmalat Brabham), as only eight cars
finished the race. Mario Andretti (Marlboro Alfa Romeo) was fourth.
1982
Niki Lauda roared back from a three-year retirement to qualify second and take his first F/One victory since 1978 in a
Marlboro McLaren. Keke Rosberg (TAG Williams) was second and Gilles Villeneuve third…but was later disqualified for
his Ferrari's staggered wing. That moved Ricardo Patrese (Parmalat Brabham) into third place.
1983
With the race now starting and finishing on Shoreline Drive, John Watson - starting a way-back 22nd on the grid in his
Marlboro MP4 - passed Jacques Lafitte (Saudia Williams) on lap 45 and went on to a 27-second victory over teammate
Niki Lauda. Rene Arnoux (Ferrari) was third in what was the final appearance of Formula One cars at Long Beach.
20
1984
A new era dawned at Long Beach as CART cars replaced the more-costly-to-stage F/One machinery. But one thing stayed
constant: Mario Andretti was still the guy to beat! He won in a Budweiser Lola, becoming the race's first two-time winner
and the first to win in both F/One and CART livery as he beat Geoff Brabham's Kraco March to the checkered flag by more
than a minute. Tom Sneva (Texaco March) was third.
1985
Fuel economy was the deciding factor. Polesitter Mario Andretti held off some early challenges to win handily in his
Beatrice Lola but, behind him, hard-charging Danny Sullivan (Miller March) ran out of fuel a scant 120 yards short of the
finish line, handing second place to Emerson Fittipaldi and his 7-Eleven March.
1986
Two up-and-coming youngsters - Michael Andretti (Kraco/STP March) and Al Unser Jr. (Domino's Pizza Lola) - gave a hint
of things to come in front of 77,500 fans, dueling through the final laps before Andretti edged Unser at the checkered flag
by only 0.38 seconds…or 44 feet! Another offspring, Geoff Brabham, snuck his Valvoline Lola by Tom Sneva for third
place.
1987
Ilmor-Chevrolet power ruled the streets of Long Beach as Mario Andretti grabbed the pole and, on race day, ran away and
hid in his Hanna Lola. His victory margin over Al Unser Jr. (Domino's Pizza March) was a phenomenal one lap-plus-29.35
seconds, or almost 2.5 miles! Tom Sneva (Skoal Bandit March) finished third and Michael Andretti was fourth, nearly 3.25
miles behind his father.
1988
"Little Al" Unser came up big and went Mario Andretti one better, winning his first Long Beach race by one lap plus 33
seconds, leading for 73 of the race's 95 laps in his Valvoline March. More than 84,000 fans watched as Bobby Rahal
(Budweiser Lola) and Kevin Cogan (Schaefer/Playboy March) followed Unser Jr. across the finish line.
1989
It was Little Al for the second year in a row…but this time his win wasn't quite so popular! Dicing with Mario Andretti in
the closing laps, Unser locked his brakes and spun Andretti off-course in Turn 3. Unser went on to win in his Valvoline
Lola by 12 seconds over Michael Andretti (K/Mart/Havoline Lola) and Emerson Fittipaldi (Marlboro Penske), but was greeted
by a hearty chorus of boos on his victory lap.
1990
Al Unser Jr. made it three in a row in the Valvoline Lola, but it was Michael Andretti who won the lion's share of the kudos.
Starting 5th on the grid, Andretti spun out on lap 2 and fell to the rear of the field. He then methodically worked his way
back up through the pack and crossed the finish line in 4th place to thunderous applause. Marlboro Penske teammates
Emerson Fittipaldi and Danny Sullivan finished 2-3.
1991
Despite the presence on the starting grid of no less than four Andrettis (Mario, Michael John, Jeff), Al Unser Jr. and his
Valvoline Lola made it four straight, with Bobby Rahal (STP/Kraco Lola) second and Eddie Cheever (Target/Scotch Lola)
third. Highest-finishing Andretti was CART rookie Jeff, who logged a 9th in his Texaco Havoline Lola.
1992
After a variety of shunts and mechanical woes sidelined race favorites Al Unser Jr., Michael Andretti and others, Danny

Sullivan (Molson/Kraco/STP Galmer) notched the victory by 0.596 seconds over Bobby Rahal (Miller Lola) and Emerson
Fittipaldi (Marlboro Penske Lola). Sullivan's average speed of 91.945 mph was a race record.
1993
While Michael Andretti went to F/One, Nigel Mansell came over to CART, won the Long Beach pole in his first try and went
on to finish third in his Kmart/Texaco Lola behind race winner Paul Tracy - his first-ever CART victory - and runner-up Bobby
Rahal (Miller Rahal/Hogan). Tracy logged a 12-second margin of victory in his Marlboro Penske.
1994
After 36 years of racing and four Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach wins, Mario Andretti ended his career on the legendary
seaside circuit with a 5th place finish in a Kmart/Scotch/Havoline Lola. Al Unser Jr. got back on the victory trail in a Marlboro
Penske, winning by 39 seconds over Nigel Mansell (Kmart/Texaco/Havoline Lola) and Robby Gordon (Valvoline/Cummins
Lola).
1995
Ho hum. Another Al Unser Jr. triumph - his 6th - came on the race's 20th anniversary as he and his Marlboro Penske
outlasted early leaders Michael Andretti, Paul Tracy and Gil de Ferran. Unser finished more than 23 seconds ahead of
Scott Pruett (Patrick Racing Lola) and Teo Fabi (Indeck Reynard).
1996
Gil de Ferran snagged the pole and led 99 of the first 100 laps before a faulty hose slowly robbed him of power. He
ultimately finished fifth as a succession of incidents (some earning hefty driver fines!) yielded the lead to Jimmy Vasser
(Target Reynard). Vasser went on to a 3.4-second win over Parker Johnstone (Motorola Reynard) and Al Unser Jr.,
(Marlboro Penske).
1997
It was a year of change featuring new drivers, chassis and engines…and 2/3 of the starting field from outside the U. S!
Alex Zanardi, driving Chip Ganassi's Target/Honda captured the victory in a race that featured seven lead changes.
Mauricio Gugelmin (Hollywood Mercedes) and Scott Pruett (Brahma Ford) rounded out an all-Reynard chassis podium.
1998
Seven full-course cautions marred Bobby Rahal's last Long Beach race (he finished 17th) and Zanardi's second straight
win as the top 14 finishers piloted Reynard chassis. Zanardi (Target Honda) took the checkered flag two-plus seconds
ahead of Dario Franchitti (KOOL Honda) and Bryan Herta, who led for 26 laps in his Shell Ford.
1999
Rookie Juan Montoya burst onto the CART scene with a convincing win in the 25th Anniversary of the Toyota Grand Prix
of Long Beach in front of more than 102,000 fans. Montoya's win - in only his third race - featured a 2.8-second margin
of victory over Dario Franchitti (KOOL Honda/Reynard) that was close only because of a yellow flag with eight laps
remaining. Bryan Herta was third in a Reynard/Ford. Driving Chip Ganassi's Target Honda/Reynard, Montoya averaged
87.915 MPH at Long Beach, and went on to become the 1999 CART FedEx Series Champion.
2000
Paul Tracy, starting 17th in his KOOL Reynard/Honda, took the lead with 20 laps to go and went on to capture the 26th
Annual Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach…the same course on which he won his first Champ Car race in 1993. Tracy
finished 3.91 seconds ahead of Helio Castroneves (Marlboro Penske) and Jimmy Vasser. Vasser's third-place finish in his
Toyota-powered Target Lola was the best to date for the new Toyota powerplant. Tracy averaged 82.626 MPH for the win
as nine cars were running at the checkered flag.
22
2001
Polesitter Helio Castroneves led from flag to flag to win the 27th Annual Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach in his
Marlboro Honda/Reynard. The 25-year-old Brazilian withstood early pressure from Kenny Brack, who later retired
with a broken gearbox, then outdistanced fellow Brazilian Cristiano da Matta (Texaco Lola/Toyota) to the
checkered flag. Marlboro teammate Gil de Ferran finished third.
2002
Michael Andretti used his veteran guile to take the 28th Annual Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach in his Team
Motorola Honda/Lola. The 39-year-old American used a brilliant pit strategy and withstood polesitter Jimmy
Vasser’s late run to win the race by 0.466 seconds. Max Papis finished third.
2003
Heartbreak for Michel Jourdain Jr. at the 29th Annual Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach. With seven laps to go
and leading the race, the Mexico native’s transmission broke leaving his final pit stop. The victory went to Paul
Tracy in his Player’s/Indeck Ford-Cosworth, after staying close to Jourdain every step of the way. It was Tracy’s
third Long Beach win. Adrian Fernandez was second, 4.544 seconds behind, while Bruno Junqueira was third.
2004
Paul Tracy put the new Champ Car "push-to-pass" power boost to good use, firing by polesitter Bruno Junqueira
in the first turn and holding on to win the 30th Annual Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach, his second straight win
and fourth overall at "The Beach." Junqueira motored to a second place finish, while France's Sebastien
Bourdais finished third, but would go on to win the Bridgestone Presents the Champ Car World Series Powered
by Ford championship.
2005
For the first time in his Champ car career, Sebastien Bourdais started outside the top three. It was a minor
annoyance, as he charged to the front of the pack after 35 of 81 laps, then held off a series of challenges to win
by 4.138-seconds. Paul Tracy finished second, followed by Bruno Junqueira.
2006
After a first-lap shunt virtually eliminated three of his closest competitors, Sebastien Bourdais motored on to
win his second straight race through the streets of Long Beach by more than 14 seconds over runner-up
Justin Wilson. Katherine Legge finished 8th … the highest-ever Champ Car finish by a woman.
2007
Coming off the worst weekend of his four-year career in Las Vegas, Sebastien Bourdais dominated the 33rd
Annual race to score the 24th win of his career, pacing 58 of 78 laps and winning his third straight on the
streets of Long Beach. The story of the day, however, was Forsythe Racing's Oriol Servia, who jumped into the
ride after Paul Tracy was injured on Saturday morning. Servia - despite having no seat time in the car - roared
all the way from 14th on the grid to finish second.
2008
Team Australia's Will Power, driving for KV Racing Technology, vaulted from fourth to first at the start of the race
and cruised to victory in the final race in Champ Car World Series history. Franck Montagny was second, followed
by Mexico's Mario Dominguez. Power led all but two laps during pit stops. The race also saw the first standing
start on the streets of Long Beach since the 1983 Formula One race.
APRIL 15-17, 2016

2009
IndyCar's debut at Long Beach saw Target Chip Ganassi's Dario Franchitti rally past polesitter Will Power to take the
checkered flag by 3.3182 seconds on his way to the 2009 IndyCar Series championship. Team Penske's Power was
second, followed by Andretti-Green's Tony Kanaan. Much of the pre-race excitement surrounded Team Penske's Helio
Castroneves, who made his return to the series after a lengthy - and sensational - court case. With only two 30-minute
practice sessions under his belt, Castroneves brought his #3 machine home 7th overall.
2010
Ryan Hunter-Reay, the newest member of the Andretti Autosport team, held off Justin Wilson by 5.6031 seconds to give the
team its first win since June 2008 at Richmond. Hunter-Reay, driving the #37 IZOD car, dedicated the win to his mother who
had recently passed away. Polesitter Will Power finished third in a race sloweed by just one full-course caution. Scott Dixon
was fourth and Tony Kanaan fifth.
2011
England’s Mike Conway overtook Ryan Briscoe on lap 72 of 85 and held on to win the 37th Annual Toyota Grand Prix of
Long Beach. Conway was as far back as 11th on a lap 66 double-wide restart, but roared back to take the checkered
flag ahead of Briscoe. Dario Franchitti finished third, with James Hinchcliffe and Alex Tagliani rounding out the top five.
2012
Will Power steered his Team Penske mount to victory in the 2012 Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach, but it wasn’t easy.
Power qualified second, just a tick behind polesitter Dario Franchitti. However, prior to the start, IndyCar penalized all
Chevy-powered cars for unapproved engine changes and he ended up starting 12th. Avoiding some early-racing troubles,
Power and his team held fast to a two-pit-stop strategy and that made the difference as he rolled up enough of a lead to
hold off fast-charging Simon Pagenaud - who had made three stops - for the win. James Hinchcliffe was third.
2013
Takuma Sato became the first driver from Japan to win an Indy car race, prevailing in the 39th Annual Toyota Grand Prix
of Long Beach. He was also the first Japanese driver to win at Long Beach, and the first to be on the podium in the race's
history. Sato, who started fourth in the 80-lap race on the 1.968-mile, 11-turn street circuit, provided A.J. Foyt Racing its
first victory since July 7, 2002, at Kansas Speedway with Airton Dare behind the wheel. The last win for the team on a
road/street course was by A.J. Foyt on Oct. 1, 1978, at Silverstone. Sato led Graham Rahal across the finish line under
caution. It was the best finish for Rahal since finishing second at Texas in June 2012.
2014
Mike Conway, driving for Ed Carpenter Racing, claimed his second victory on the streets of Long Beach, beating Will Power
by .9005 of a second. He inherited the lead with two laps remaining and held it to the checkered flag, winning the 40th
Annual Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach. Power finished second for Team Penske and series rookie Carlos Munoz scored
his second IndyCar podium finish with third place for Andretti-HVM Racing.

2016 Verizon IndyCar Series: Close, Exciting Racing Abounds!
Few series have offered closer, more exciting racing in recent years than the Verizon IndyCar Series. In 2014, 11 drivers tasted victory
and there were nine winners in 16 races in 2015. More impressively, six drivers entered the season-finale at Sonoma Raceway with a
mathematical chance to win the Astor Cup.
Ultimately, Target Chip Ganassi Racing’s Scott Dixon edged Team Penske’s Juan Pablo Montoya for the his fourth series championship.
While Dixon – last year’s Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach winner - and Montoya finished tied with 556 points, Dixon won on the
tiebreaker, with three wins to Montoya’s two.
With six championships in eight years, Team Ganassi has gotten the better of archrival Penske in recent seasons, with 2013 Indy 500
winner Tony Kanaan, Charlie Kimball, and former F/1 driver Max Chilton in the four-car Ganassi stable for 2016.
However, no team is more storied in IndyCar history than Penske, winner of 13 championships and 16 Indy 500s. In 2016, Penske
returns with its four-car armada intact. Australian Will Power won the championship in 2014 and looks to rebound after a difficult 2015.
Three-time Indy 500 winner Helio Castroneves has entered the season-finale each of the last three years with a chance to win the title.
Simon Pagenaud, also, endured a difficult 2015, but is a not-so-dark dark horse in 2016.
Together with Montoya, it is undoubtedly the series’ deepest driver lineup.
New Chevrolet power kits will help Penske and Ganassi in 2016. Since returning to IndyCar in 2012, Chevy-powered cars have won
three of the last four driver championships, and each of the last four Manufacturer Championships. Chevy clearly got the better of Honda
in 2015 with the introduction of aero kits (bodywork designs added onto the Dallara chassis). Chevrolet teams won 10 races in 2015,
and have won 26 consecutive pole positions dating back to mid-2014.
The Chevy armada also has 2015 multiple-race winners Josef Newgarden - a rising star - of Ed Carpenter Racing and Sebastien
Bourdais of KVSH Racing. Bourdais won three consecutive Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach from 2005-2007 and, with 34 career wins,
ranks second to Dixon amongst active drivers.
Honda hopes that body kit alterations will close the gap on Chevy in 2016. Honda's two leaders are Americans Graham Rahal and Ryan
Hunter-Reay, both two-time winners in 2015. Rahal enjoyed a breakout year in 2015 and was the lead Honda driver, finishing fourth in
the standings, winning at Auto Club Speedway and his home race at Mid-Ohio.
Hunter-Reay endured something of a down season in 2015, but with a late-season surge the driver of the #28 DHL Honda won at Iowa
and Pocono and was seventh in the championship. With 16 career wins, including the 2014 Indy 500, and the 2012 series championship,
the 35-year-old Hunter-Reay is unquestionably the best American IndyCar driver of this era.
Honda’s performance will also impact the Sunoco Rookie of the Year battle. Chilton will compete against fellow-ex Former Formula One
driver Alexander Rossi, driving the #98 Andretti-Herta Autosport Honda and Conor Daly in the #18 Dale Coyne Racing Honda.
Early indications are Chevrolet still holds a slight edge. Montoya repeated his 2015 victory in the opening race at St. Petersburg on Feb.
13, followed by Team Penske teammate Simon Pagenaud. Hunter-Reay was the lead Honda in third.
The Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach 80-lap Indycar race takes the green flag at 1:30 pm on Sunday.

TOYOTA PRO/CELEBRITY RACE
PAST RACE SUMMARIES
1977
Five Pros and four Celebrities - including astronaut Pete Conrad and actor Gene Hackman - took the green flag for the 1st Toyota Pro/
Celebrity Race. Nine laps later, the checkered flag fell on pro Sam Posey, who won by .744 seconds over film/TV actor Shelly Novack.
Novack, who had starred in football at Long Beach State and was drafted by the AFL San Diego Chargers, would tragically die of a heart
attack a year later. And even though he finished last in the Celebrity ranks, Gene Hackman had caught the racing bug and would prove to be
a driver to be reckoned with in the years to come.
1978
Pro Gordon Johncock edged fast-closing Celebrity driver, actor James Brolin, by 2.5 seconds to win the second Pro/Celebrity Race. The
Celebrity field included William Shatner and Los Angeles Rams defensive end Fred Dryer. And, for the first time, a woman - stunt driver/
racer Kitty O'Neill - was in the starting field in the Pro ranks. Racing legend Dan Gurney - one of the original co-founders of the Toyota
Grand Prix of Long Beach - finished third overall.
1979
Olympic hero Bruce Jenner became the first Celebrity to win the Toyota Pro/Celebrity Race, finishing a scant 1.8 seconds ahead of Pro Al
Unser Sr. TV sportscaster Jayne Kennedy was the first woman to race in the Celebrity ranks....and she finished a solid second in the group,
ahead of Fred Dryer, Kent McCord and football star John Cappalletti. Kitty O'Neill was third in the Pro ranks, outpacing Rick Mears, Tom
Sneva and drag racing star Don Prudhomme.
1980
Gene Hackman returned to the Pro/Celebrity Race.....and nearly won , finishing just 3.2 seconds behind the legendary Parnelli Jones. Bruce
Jenner continued his strong Pro/Celebrity race performances, finishing second to Hackman in the Celebrity ranks, which also included
football stars Fred Dryer and Lynn Swann and the return of astronaut Pete Conrad, third in the Celebrity standings. A strong Pro field
included Rick Mears (second in the Pro ranks), Kyle Petty, Dan Gurney, Neil Bonnett and David Hobbs.
1981
Only three pros lined up against 13 celebrities in the 1981 race.....and actor Robert Hays took advantage of the situation, beating Pro Elio de
Angelis to the checkered flag by 1.34 seconds. Gene Hackman was 10th in the Celebrity ranks, behind rodeo star Larry Mahan, Paul
Williams, Pete Conrad and TV's Ken Squier, among others. Dan Gurney and Parnelli Jones rounded out the Pro ranks.
1982
Bruce Jenner became the first two-time winner of the Toyota Pro/Celebrity Race, edging Pro Dan Gurney by 5.2 seconds. A strong Celebrity
field featured defending race champion Robert Hays, football stars Joe Montana and Jack Reynolds, actress Jenilee Harrison, Larry Mahan,
singer Ted Nugent and actor Parker Stevenson. Kathy Rude, the first woman to win an IMSA class race at the 24 Hours of Daytona, was
fourth in the Pro division.
1983
Before the race even started, former Celebrity entrants Bruce Jenner and Gene Hackman were deemed so proficient they were slotted up
into the Pro category! Dan Gurney went on to dominate the race, winning by 12.6 seconds over fellow Pro drivers Parnelli Jones and
Hackman, with Celebrity winner Ted Nugent finishing fourth overall. Former overall winner (1981) Robert Hays was second in the Celebrity
standings, which also featured Parker Stevenson, Paul Williams, Alexis Arguello and J. Geils, leader of rock music's famed J. Geils Band.

PAST RACE SUMMARIES
1984
Long-time racer (now TV color commentator) David Hobbs roared to a 2.03-second win over fellow Pro Scott Pruett. Robert Hays continued his excellent driving, taking the Celebrity division and finishing third overall just two years removed from his overall win in 1981.
Olympic gold medal-winning skier Bill Johnson finished just behind Hays; other Celebrity drivers included Christopher Cross, Ted Dawson
and Paul Page.
1985
A new category - Media Entries - was added for the 1985 race, but the added competition mattered little to Al Unser Jr. He sped to a
4.5-second win over fellow Pros Parnelli Jones and Dan Gurney. Car & Driver Magazine's Tony Swan finished fourth and topped the Media
Entry category. Lorenzo Lamas won the Celebrity category, finishing eighth overall and outrunning fellow celebrities like Tony Danza, Perry
King, Rachael Donahue and football star Mark Gastineau.
1986
Two racing legends finished 1-2, with Dan Gurney taking the checkered flag 4.06 seconds ahead of Parnelli Jones. It was Gurney's
second overall Toyota Pro/Celebrity Race victory (1983). Film/TV actor Perry King captured the Celebrity Division and finished a solid third
overall, oudistancing fellow celebs like Lorenzo Lamas, David Hasselhoff and baseball star Rick Monday. Chip Ganassi, now owner of the
Target Chip Gansssi racing team, defending champions of the Verizon IndyCar circuit, finished behind Jones in the Pro standings.
1987
It was close, but film/TV star Jason Bateman edged Pro driver Juan Manuel Fangio II by a whisker -- 0.64 seconds -- to finish first overall.
A pack of 13 celebrities included Woody Harrelson, Richard Dean Anderson, radio personality Hollywood Henderson, baseball great Bobby
Grich and the return of Gene Hackman to the Toyota Pro/Celebrity wars. Defending race champion Dan Gurney and Parnelli Jones both
finished off the pace.
1988
The Celebrity entry list packed some powerful punch -- Jay Leno, Richard Dean Anderson, football's Dwight Clark and Walter Payton and
baseball's Jay Johnstone, to name a few --- but it was a local Los Angeles TV news anchor, Paul Moyer, who stole the show. Moyer took
the checkered flag 1.08 seconds ahead of the always-competitive Dan Gurney for the win. Gurney won the Pro division, beating Parnelli
Jones and first-time competitor Willy T. Ribbs. Moyer averaged 57.083 mph for the 10-lap race.
1989
Another barn-burner! This time, film/TV star Ricky Schroder did the celebrating, beating Pro Parnelli Jones by only 0.57 seconds. Paul
Moyer returned to (unsuccessfully, unfortunately!) defend his title and was joined by 1988 Celebrity returnees Jay Leno and Walter Payton.
Other celebrities included Kelsey Grammer and Cornelia Guest. Dan Gurney, P. J. Jones and Jeff Andretti filled out the Pro field.
1990
Long-time open wheel stars Bobby Rahal and Johnny Rutherford were the early favorites going in....and Rahal came through with a 6.2
second win over film/TV star Stephen Baldwin. Rutherford finished as runner-up to Rahal on the Pro category. TV sportscaster Paul Page
was second in the Celebrity ranks, which also included Pro Football Hall of Famer Larry Czonka, Monica Brooks, Peter Cetera and Dwight
Yoakam.
100
PAST RACE SUMMARIES
1991
The Celebrities took it to the Pros, finishing 1-4, with singer Donny Osmond taking the checkered flag 4.9 seconds ahead of TV/film star
Craig T. Nelson, local KABC-TV weatherman Dallas Raines and Bart Conner. The Celebrity field also included Marsha Mason, Susan Ruttan
and football great Tony Dorsett. Pro/Celebrity Race veteran Parnelli Jones finished fifth to top the Pro ranks.
1992
A new second-generation driver - P.J. Jones - outdueled off-road star Rod Millen and his father, Parnelli, to win Pro and overall honors.
Drag racer Joe Amato finished third overall and topped the Celebrity category, which included Gunnar Nelson, Ed Arnold, Tim Allen and Ellen
K. Actor Craig T. Nelson, newly-promoted to the Pro ranks, was 4th behind Parnelli Jones.
1993
World champion motorcyclist Eddie Lawson made a smooth transition to four wheels, edging Celebrity writer/producer Rick Kirkham by 7.2
seconds to win the 1993 race. The Celebrity field included Olympic gymnastics star Mary Lou Retton, actors Cuba Gooding Jr. and David
Alan Grier and football star Bob Golic. Drag racer John Force was second in the Pro ranks.
1994
Celebrity entries Alfonso Ribeiro and Sean Astin pulled away from the rest of the field, with Ribeiro outlasting fellow TV/film actor Astin to the
checkered flag by 7.6 seconds. Brian Redman, winner of the first-ever Long Beach Grand Prix in 1975, returned to the city streets to win
the Pro category - third overall - ahead of Cruz Pedregon and Clay Regazzoni, who won the Grand Prix the year after Redman. The Celebrity
field included David Alan Grier and Raiders star quarterback Ken Stabler.
1995
Alfonso Ribeiro roared to his second straight victory on the streets of Long Beach as Celebrity entries finished 1-4....but it was close! Ribeiro
crossed the finish line a miniscule 0.4 seconds ahead of Anthony Edwards, with Grant Show and Matt LeBlanc just behind. Film star
Cameron Diaz made her racing debut with a ninth-place finish. Off-roader Rod Millen topped the Pro ranks and was fifth overall.
1996
It was an all-Celebrity free-for-all as, for the first and only time in the race's history, there were no Professional entries. TV/film actor Grant
Show took advantage of the situation, taking the checkered flag just a tick (0.5 seconds) ahead of Jason Bateman. Alfonso Ribeiro, trying
for his third straight victory, ended up in third place. Past race winners Robert Hays, Paul Moyer, Bruce Jenner, Rick Schroder, Perry King and
Rick Kirkham were all part of the star-studded field, with King finishing fourth.
1997
Actor Sean Patrick Flannery won by 5.1 seconds ahead of fellow Celebrities Jason Bateman and actress Christy Carlson. Versatile driver Tom
Kendall paced the Pro ranks - which included the legendary Sir Jack Brabham - and finished fourth overall. And, a special Celebrity driver
made his only race appearance: Wyland, the famed sea life artist and muralist whose work - the world's largest mural - adorns the walls of
the Convention Center Arena and has become a Long Beach landmark. 1998
Sean Patrick Flanery, winner of the 1997 race as a Celebrity, was promoted to the Pro ranks...and promptly reeled off another victory!
Flanery outdueled Celebrity entrant actor/filmmaker Andy Lauer by only 3.1 seconds, beating a Celebrity field that included Cameron Diaz,
Eric Braeden, sports broadcaster Bob Fouts and Queen Latifah. The Pro ranks included three-time Tour de France winner Greg Lemond.

Lewis. Drag racer Gary Scelzi finished as runner-up in the Pro ranks.
2000
Actor Josh Brolin did his father one better, winning the race by 2.9 seconds over fellow Celebrity drivers Joshua Morrow and Don
Simons, with football great John Elway and film star Ashley Judd just behind. Pro driver Derek Daly was fourth overall, with 1999 overall

second overall in 1978.
2001
Josh Brolin raced as a Pro entry in 2001 and almost got his second win, crossing the finish line just 1.07 seconds behind versatile Pro
driver Scott Pruett. Toyota executive Tom Rudnai topped the Celebrity ranks after bumping polesitter Dara Torres off-line late in the race...
but Torres would get her revenge in the future! Other Celebrity entrants included "Captain Kirk" - William Shatner - and Buffalo Bills star

IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship:
BUBBA burger Sports Car Grand Prix Takes Center Stage
Three high-powered racing classes will take the green flag at 4:35 p.m. Saturday for a 100-minute sprint in the BUBBA
burger Sports Car Grand Prix at Long Beach, part of the 2016 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship Series.
“IMSA is proud to offer such a strong field of world-class race cars from some of the greatest and most admired automobile
manufacturers to compete here at Long Beach and for the full 2016 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship,” said
IMSA CEO Ed Bennett. “The commitments we have received show strength and continuity for IMSA and our promoter
partners."
The exotic Prototype (P) class features Corvette Daytona Prototypes, Mazda Prototypes, one Honda / Ligier JS P2 and the
DeltaWing in the final season under current regulations that include Daytona Prototypes and LM P2 race cars.
And, after the season’s first two races - the Rolex 24 At Daytona and the Mobil 1 12 Hours of Sebring – two teams are
tied for the Prototype points lead. The team of Luis Derani/Scott Sharp/Johannes von Overbeek/Ed Brown (ESM Honda
Ligier JS P2) won at both Daytona and Sebring, but Christian Fittipaldi/Joao Barbosa/Filip Albuquerque (Corvette DP)
captured three in-race segments to help forge the tie.
The factory-supported GT Le Mans (GTLM) class features five different manufacturers – BMW, Chevrolet, Ferrari, Ford and
Porsche – in what is considered by many to be the most competitive class of GT racing in the world.
Like the Prototype co-leaders, Tommy Milner/Olivier Gavin/Marcel Fassier also come to Long Beach with two wins under
their belt and pacing the GTLM points standings in their Corvette C7.R.
The Prototype Challenge (PC) class includes the venerable ORECA FLM09 chassis and spec-Chevrolet engine package that
made their debuts in the recent Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring.
The team of Robert Alon/Jose Gutierrez/Tom Kimber-Smith currently lead in PC points in their ORECA FLM09. They’ll be
pressed here at Long Beach by, among others, the team of Colin Braun/Jonathan Bennett/Mark Wilkins, who won the
Sebring race in another ORECA FLM09.
The International Motor Sports Association, LLC (IMSA) was originally founded in 1969 and owns a long and rich history
in sports car racing and today is the sanctioning body of the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship, the premier
sports car racing series in North America. IMSA also sanctions the Continental Tire SportsCar Challenge and the Mazda
Prototype Lites Presented by Cooper Tires, as well as four single-make series. For more information, visit www.IMSA.com.

MOTEGI RACING SUPER DRIFT CHALLENGE
Style, not speed, is the winning formula
Don't plan on going home early Friday and Saturday nights.
If you do, you'll miss all the slipping, sliding, smoking action of the Motegi Racing Super Drift Challenge.
A field of 16 great Formula DRIFT cars and drivers will be battling it out in turns 9-10-11 and Grand Prix ticketholders can
catch all the excitement from grandstands 16, 18, 24, 25 and 26.
Grandstand seating is first-come, first-served beginning at 6:30 each night.
Practice and qualifying starts at 7 p.m. Friday, with the finals slated for 7 p.m. Saturday.
Last year, long-time drifting star Conrad Grunewald outdueled Robbie Nishida in the final to take race honors in the
$25,000-prize-purse event. The pair beat out a strong field that included Forrest Wang, Charles Ng, Justin Pawlak, Michael
Essa and Odi Bakchis.
This the fourth straight year the Motegi Racing Super Drift Challenge will be battling a Grand Prix course that features
high-speed entry into corners and tight spacing...leaving no room for mistakes!
The Motegi Racing Super Drift Challenge follows last weekend's opening round of the Formula DRIFT 2016 championship
season.
Drifting, which first became popular in Japan, showcases execution of maneuvers and style, rather than quickest time.

Pirelli World Challenge Championship:
Top Sports Cars, Drivers Set for Round 5
Three competitive classes. Fifty minutes. Wheel-to-wheel action.
It all begins at 10 a.m. Sunday when the GT/GTA/GT Cup classes of the Pirelli World Challenge battle it out in Round 5 of its
2016 competition.
The Pirelli World Challenge features some of the world's best sports car drivers and cars from manufacturers like Acura, Aston
Martin, Audi, Cadillac, Ferrari, Bentley, Mercedes, Porsche, Nissan and McLaren.
Four-time and defending 2015 GT Champion Johnny O'Connell started the GT season off with a win in Round 2 at Circuit of the
Americas in Texas and a 3rd at St. Petersburg in his Cadillac ATS-VR GT3. O'Connell's teammate, Michael Cooper, the 2015
GTS-Class Driver's Champion, scored a 2nd/3rd at Texas and a 3rd at St. Petersburg and holds a two-point lead over O'Connell
coming to Long Beach.
Patrick Long, the 2011 champion, won Round 1 at Texas in his Porsche 911 GT3R. His teammate, Michael Lewis, comes to
Long Beach on fire, having won both rounds at St. Petersburg and ranks third in points as the pair try to help Porsche repeat as
GT Manufacturer's Champion.
Nissan Motorsports returns with two GT-R GT3s for JD Davison and Bryan Heitkotter, while K-PAX Racing fields three McLaren
650S GT3s for Alvaro Parente, Colin Thompson, and Austin Cindric.
Kyle Marcelli will pilot an Audi R8, while two Bentley Continental GT3s will have Adderly Fong and Andrew Palmer behind the
wheel.
Sports car veteran Jon Fogarty will drive a McLaren 650S, while seven-time series champion Peter Cunningham and teammate
Ryan Eversley will wheel Acura TLX-GTs.
So far in 2016, the GTA Class has been all Martin Fuentes! The Ferraro 458 GT3 Italia driver has won all four rounds and holds
a big 66-point lead over 2015 GTA Champion Frankie Montecalvo and his Mercedes AMG SLS GT3.
The GTA field also includes Jorge De La Torre in an Aston Martin Vantage V12 GT3.
And, in the GT Cup Class - featuring only Porsche 911 GT3 cars - a season-long battle is looming between Sloan Urry and Alec
Udell. Urry has won 3 of the first 4 rounds for 456 points, while Udell won Round 1 and finished second to Urry in the other
three for 404 points.
Preston Calvert currently holds down third place in the GT Cup standings.

SPEED Energy Stadium SUPER Trucks:
Defending Champ Has Big Early Lead
Sheldon Creed comes to Long Beach on a serious roll!
The defending SPEED Energy Stadium SUPER Trucks presented by TRAXXAS series champion has won three of the first
five races in 2016. He won two of three in the season opener in Adelaide, Australia, then came back to win the first of
two races March 13 at St. Petersburg.
Creed won nine races, scoring 617 points, to win the 2015 series title. Here at Long Beach, he was second to EJ Viso.
Keegan Kincaid, third in points in 2015 with two wins, won the second race at St. Petersburg, with Burt Jenner taking the
checkered flag in Race Two in Australia. Jenner was fourth in points last year, scoring three wins.
Creed will have a 47-point lead (165-118) over Kincaid when the drivers take the green flag for the first of two races at
1:05 p.m. Saturday. The second, at 4 p.m. Sunday, will wrap up racing at the 42nd Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach.
Drivers will be wheeling identically-prepared, 600-horsepower trucks capable of hitting speeds of 130 mph. In addition,
man-made ramps are set up in strategic locations around the Long Beach circuit, causing the trucks to fly nearly 20 feet
off the ground and soar hundreds of feet down the track!
Series founder Robby Gordon is third in points, one behind Kincaid, followed by Matt Brabham (114) and Paul Morris (96)
in the top five.
Burt Jenner (64), Bill Hynes (59), Tyler McQuarrie (48), Toby Price (46) and Greg Gartner (40) round out the points top 10.
The SPEED Energy Stadium SUPER Trucks wil race at 1:05 p.m. on Saturday and 4:05 p.m. on Sunday!

In 1975, Los Angeles ruled the sports world….
The USC Trojans defeated Ohio State in the Rose Bowl to win the college
football national championship to start the year…three months later, UCLA
would defeat Kentucky to give John Wooden his final NCAA basketball
title…Walter Alston was preparing to close out a Hall of Fame career as
manager of the Dodgers and the Los Angeles Rams went 12-2 and
advanced to the NFC title game.
And down in Long Beach they were preparing for the inaugural Long
Beach Grand Prix, but many were skeptical that the fledgling event and its
Formula 5000 race would ever take place. Yet, that didn’t deter Toyota
from signing on as “The Official Car” with its Celica GT Liftback.
Today, as it prepares for it’s 40th annual running, the Toyota Grand Prix of
Long Beach continues to be a major staple of Southern California culture
and the marriage between Toyota and the GPLB is the longest-continuous
running race sponsorship in American motorsports.
“Southern California is not only one of the most important markets in the
nation for Toyota, but it’s also our home base,” said Les Unger, national
motorsports manager for Toyota, with its U.S. headquarters in nearby
Torrance. “This is where we live and work, and our partnership in Long
Beach has allowed our associates, dealer personnel and their families to
be a part of our rich racing tradition. But most of all, it’s a tremendous
opportunity to give back to our local community – especially throughout
recent difficult times.”
That partnership between Toyota and Long Beach has helped bring
some of the greatest drivers in the world to Southern California.
A ‘Who’s Who’ of racing has reached Victory Circle in Long Beach. Dating
back to its infancy in 1975, previous Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach
winners include Mario and Michael Andretti, Al Unser Jr., Danny Sullivan,
Alex Zanardi, Jimmy Vasser, Nelson Piquet, Niki Lauda and Gilles
Villeneuve, as well as current stars like Helio Castroneves and Juan Pablo
Montoya.
“Long Beach is obviously one of those iconic Indy car races that dates
back 40 years this April,” said Scott Dixon, the reigning and three-time
Indy Car champion for Target/Chip Ganassi Racing. “Outside of winning
the Indianapolis 500, it’s one of those races every driver has on their list
to win.”
The relationship between Toyota and the city of Long Beach extends
outside of the racetrack as well. Long Beach was (and still is) home to the
very first Toyota manufacturing plant in America. Today, eight major
Toyota facilities are located in Southern California. In addition, the
company helps provide more than 26,000 jobs in California, as well as an
investment of $5.7 billion and donated more than $131 million in
philanthropy.
144
Toyota also has a long-standing commitment to Southern California charities
through the Grand Prix. Overall, Toyota has generated more than $2 million dollars
for childrens’ hospitals in Southern California in conjunction with the race.
Toyota’s motorsports presence also extends throughout Southern California. The
manufacturer is a long time official vehicle sponsor of the Auto Club Speedway in
Fontana and also is the “Official Car” of the Glendora-based National Hot Rod
Association (NHRA). The region also is home to TRD, U.S.A., (Toyota Racing
Development), one of the world’s preeminent race performance and engineering
companies, which is based in Costa Mesa.
TRD, now in its 35th year in the Southland, was established in 1979 as a
performance-parts distributor in the United States. Today, TRD designs, develops,
manufactures and assembles racing engines for Toyota’s racing teams, and in
addition, provides teams with race vehicle engineering and at-track race support.
These activities support TMS Motorsports Marketing participation in NASCAR,
NHRA and other U.S. racing series.
Many noteworthy accomplishments on the American racing scene over the last 35
years were first conceived in Southern California. Among the long list of historic
victories for TRD-built engines include the 2003 Indianapolis 500, four Daytona 24
Hours victories, the 12 Hours of Sebring, the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb,
the Baja 500 and the Baja 1000. The significant race wins go hand-in-hand with
driver’s and manufacturer’s championships in NASCAR, GRAND AM, IRL, CART,
IMSA GTP and GTO, and CORR, SCORE and MTEG off-road competition.
In 2013, Toyota participated in a variety of motorsports disciplines, winning races
in NASCAR, NHRA, off-road trucks, USAC and POWRi, while earning
championships in NHRA, TORC, USAC and POWRi competition.
Heading into 2014, Camry drivers had also captured 63 wins in the NASCAR Sprint
Cup Series and 88 victories in the NASCAR Nationwide Series since joining series
competition in 2007, while Tundra drivers have earned 112 triumphs in the
NASCAR Camping World Truck Series since the 2004 season.
Toyota’s NHRA program has risen to new heights over the past four years as
Toyota-sponsored cars have gone to victory circle 82 times, with 70 of those
coming in Top Fuel competition to go along with four championships.
While the “Roar Along The Shore” remains Toyota’s signature event, the
manufacturer also is active in sponsorships throughout the U.S.A.
“We’ve long sponsored successful events in major markets in Los Angeles and
San Francisco. In 2012, we were able to expand into NHRA sponsorship in New
Jersey and in 2013 we added the spring NASCAR weekend in Richmond, as well
as the fall NHRA event in Las Vegas,” said Unger. “We continue to enjoy
entitlements in other successful events throughout the country at venues in
Charlotte, Chicago, Dover, Kansas City, Phoenix, New Hampshire, Sonoma, and
Watkins Glen. One thing remains constant, and that’s each of these tracks offer up
a great history and dedicated fan-base.”

The Firestone brand’s involvement in open-wheel racing dates back to the early 1900s when Harvey Firestone
decided to use racing as the ultimate proving ground for his products and technology.
When Ray Harroun's Firestone-equipped Marmon Wasp won the inaugural Indianapolis 500® Mile Race in
1911, the Firestone name was etched in racing history. The brand looks forward to crowning its 67th winner –
more victories at the “Greatest Spectacle in Racing” than all other tire manufactures combined – at the historic
100th Running of the Indianapolis 500.
This year marks the Firestone brand’s 15th season as the Official Tire of the Verizon IndyCar® Series, building
on its storied history in open-wheel racing.
On-track initiatives for 2016 include continuing to maximize tire performance in conjunction with the
evolution of the engine manufacturers’ aero kits. Firestone Racing’s engineers focused much of their offseason preparations on optimizing their race tires for the increased performance demands of the updated kits.
Additionally, Firestone focused its tire development efforts on determining tire specifications for the return to
Phoenix International Raceway and Road America, the new street course event in Boston, and the tire brand’s
continuous quest to be the best today, still better tomorrow.
In total, Firestone will produce more than 65 different race tire specifications for the 16-race schedule, all
developed by its team of engineers, chemists and technicians based at the company’s Americas Technical Center
and Advanced Tire Workshop in Akron, Ohio.
This dedication to innovation and performance has helped Firestone’s on-track success translate to the open
road. Firestone Racing’s engineers work side-by-side with the company’s passenger tire engineers to ensure
the technological advances developed for the racetrack help consumers meet the demands of their daily travel.
Firestone also sees to it that all of the raw materials, proprietary technology and rigorous testing that go into
creating its world-class racing tires are the same processes used to produce all of Firestone’s passenger tires.
In addition to its designation as the Official Tire of the Verizon IndyCar Series, Firestone will continue its
entitlement and official tire sponsorships at several races in 2016, including the Firestone Grand Prix of St.
Petersburg, the Firestone 600 at Texas Motor Speedway, the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach, the Grand Prix
of Boston and the Indianapolis 500.
Off-track, Firestone will continue its comprehensive, 360-degree approach to engage fans and other key
stakeholders in 2016. The integrated marketing program includes public relations, advertising, social media,
digital and grassroots marketing in every race market.
146
One of the pillars of Firestone Racing program is the interactive Firestone Experience which is highlighted
by unique experiences that tell the Firestone brand story and educate fans about three new Firestone tires that
will be launched in 2016. Firestone representatives will also be on-site supporting Firestone Complete Auto
Care’s “INDYCAR 360” program at retail locations in local race markets.
The Firestone Experience will continue to include fan-focused activities like branded games, “augmented
reality” displays and an airbrushed tattoo station in 2016, while adding new elements like a racing simulator
and enhanced social media engagement areas. Fans will also be able to have their names virtually etched next
to racing’s biggest legends on Firestone commemorative Indy 500 tire activation.

Premier creates the ultimate hospitality experience for fans to win big with Prix attendees

Thousands of race fans will once again be able to savor the sunny weekend during the 42nd Toyota Grand Prix April

larger and improved layout, guest appearances, music and Rita's Long Pour Margaritas. As one of the race
sponsors, Tecate Beers will be featured throughout the race.
Again this year, Premier’s dedicated recycling team supported by local non-profit organizations will be in the suites
and on the promenade trying to achieve the highest recycle rate possible

Paddock Club Hospitality Just Part of “Redcoats” Key Role
The Committee of 300 Paddock Club is a race-weekend party that annually hosts race fans from as far away as Europe
& Australia to enjoy a three-day package of fun--- music from the hottest local bands, dancing, closed-circuit TV, reserved
grandstand seats in the best locations, breakfast, lunch, full service bar (with attentive and friendly servers), and even
permanent restrooms!
It’s the ORIGINAL Paddock Club at the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach, sponsored by the best all-volunteer group in Long
Beach! And, for the 42nd consecutive year, the Committee of 300 of Long Beach Inc. - the famed “Redcoats” – will again
be critical to the success of the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach.
C300 members serve in a variety of capacities, most notably as official grandstand supervisors and Ambassadors to Long
Beach.
Lost? Ask a Redcoat! Want a good place to eat in downtown Long Beach? Ask a Redcoat!
Want the location of the nearest ATM? Ask a Redcoat!
To join the fun offered by Long Beach’s most dynamic volunteer organization call (562) 981-9200, or visit the C300 web
site at committeeof300.com.
Better yet, just ask a “Redcoat!"
Grand Prix Foundation Key Member of Long Beach Community
Since its inception in 1991, the Grand Prix Foundation of Long Beach has contributed more than $3 million to a wide
variety of charitable organizations throughout the greater Long Beach area.
The Foundation helps generate pre-race excitement with the return of Monte Carlo Night to the Renaissance Hotel Long
Beach on Friday, April 15 at 7 p.m.
Last year, the Foundation presented local charities – including Miller Children’s Hospital of Long Beach, Children’s Hospital
of Orange County and the Long Beach Area Special Olympics - with more than $150,000 in donations. In addition, the
Foundation supports the Robert E. Leslie Scholarship Program for graduating high school seniors and a variety of other
locally-based charities.
Thanks to low administrative costs and a volunteer base of over 200 local citizens, 90 cents of every dollar raised goes
directly to charities selected by the Foundation’s 11-member Board of Directors.
For more information about the Grand Prix Foundation of Long Beach or Monte Carlo Night, visit: gplb.com or call (562)
490-4509.

COASTAL LIVING: That's the Long Beach Style!
by Jared Thieme
The California Coast is a destination for many people seeking to experience year-round sun and fun. Just shy of
500,000 residents, Long Beach has transformed its industrial beginnings to include many international and
cultural experiences.
In 1984, iconic venues such as the Long Beach Arena, Convention Center, and the Shoreline Marina were used
for the Los Angeles Summer Olympics, hosting volleyball, fencing, and sailing.
Famous bands and artists such as Sublime and Snoop Dogg claim Long Beach as their home, and locallyrecorded albums by Led Zeppelin and Rick James have helped cement the city's reputation for musical creation.
The art scene in Long Beach covers a wide variety of mediums, from street art supported by the City’s Mural and
Cultural Arts Program, to the 1936 art deco ocean liner Queen Mary. You'll enjoy a walk through the East Village
Arts District, where local artists exhibit their work. For another artistic experience, bask in the California sun while
strolling down Ocean Boulevard. An abundance of historical architectural styles -- including craftsman and
bungalow along with the Long Beach Museum of Art -- wait to be explored.
The city, too, has a perfect balance between soothing beachfronts and an upbeat nightlife. From its award winning
restaurants and art museums to the family-friendly Aquarium of the Pacific, Long Beach has it all, including
surfing, kayaking, and sailing just off the coast.
Just over three miles from Shoreline Drive, which transforms into the front straightaway and start/finish line of
the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach, is Belmont Shore, packed with more than 250 businesses and restaurants
such as Tilly’s, Belmont Brewing Company, and Simmzy’s, ready for your enjoyment.
Located just inland, California State University, Long Beach educates more than 30,000 students annually, and
claims such distinguished alumni as Steven Spielberg, Steve Martin, and baseball's Troy Tulowitzki.
The city of Long Beach is truly the definition of coastal living, with the right balance of work and play creating a
unique environment for visitors and residents alike.
