Bill Milliken’s 99th birthday, April 17, 2010 at the IMRRC
Center Honoring Bill Milliken at 99th Birthday Party.
The Racing Research Center is honoring one of its greatest friends with a birthday party – his 99th birthday party.
William F. Milliken, a founding member of road racing in Watkins Glen and a pioneer in automotive and aeronautical engineering, will be the man of the hour at the festivities on Saturday, April 17.
All are invited to the event that will begin with a reception at 1 p.m. A program featuring accolades from some of Milliken’s friends and fans will begin at 3 p.m.
It was in that first race through the streets that Milliken sealed his fame in Watkins Glen, rolling his Type 35A Bugatti in a section of the original circuit known today as “Milliken’s Corner.” He crawled out from under the wreckage, uninjured, to the cheers of the gathered crowd.
