Welcome to the home of World Hockey Association INDIANAPOLIS RACERS HOCKEY
whaRACERS.com is dedicated to preserving and promoting the history of the 1974-1979
Indianapolis
Racers major league hockey team, its fans, and the legacy of the
World Hockey
Association.
Since 2004 we have gathered extensive research,
published a deifinitve
history
of the
franchise
as a book, held team reunions, and created an exclusive
two-DVD video
collection.
Led by an original Indianapolis Racers fan Timothy Gassen — now a journalist
and
filmmaker
— our efforts have grown to include the creation and growth of the WHA
Hall of Fame, with
several more DVD sets available and public events
throughout
North America celebrating the
league that gave birth to the Racers.
We are dedicated to keeping this important sports history alive, and welcome
your participation
— contact us and join in! We have worked so hard to make all
of this
available, and we hope
you enjoy the ongoing results.
