Racing career edit

Andres was part of the midget car racing "Chicago Gang," along with Tony Bettenhausen, Cowboy O'Rourke, Paul Russo, Jimmy Snyder, and Wally Zale.[3] These racers toured tracks in the Midwest[4] and East Coast of the United States.

World Drivers' Championship career edit

The AAA/USAC-sanctioned Indianapolis 500 was included in the FIA World Drivers' Championship from 1950 through 1960. Drivers competing at Indianapolis during those years were credited with World Drivers' Championship participation, and were eligible to score WDC points alongside those which they may have scored towards the AAA/USAC National Championship.

Andres attempted to qualify for one World Drivers' Championship race at Indianapolis, failing to make the 1950 race.[1]

Awards and honors edit

Andres was inducted in the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame in 1996. In 2013, he was inducted in the National Midget Auto Racing Hall of Fame.[5]
