By his teens he was racing stock cars, sprint cars and Formula Fords. Unser won the American IndyCar Series title in 1989 and has raced in the Indy 500 twice, earning IRL’s Rookie of the Year honor in 1998. He’s won the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb nine times, competed in Formula D drifting events and also worked as a driving coach.
