Indianapolis Motor Speedway
Race Menu for the weekend series

While Indianapolis Motor Speedway is the most popular racetrack in the Hoosier State, the vast majority of motorsports events held in Indianapolis are held at O'Reilly Raceway Park, including a Craftsman Truck Series race and a Busch Series event.

Drag racing, road racing, Sprint Car races and other events suited to a shorter track fall to ORP, which changed its name from Indianapolis Raceway Park in 2006. You can also usually find a large racing program there on the night before the Indianapolis 500.

The annual NHRA U.S. Nationals are traditionally held there on Labor Day weekend and SCCA events are held on the park's road course.

Track Facts
Banking/Turns: 12 degrees
Distance: .686 miles
Shape: Oval
Banking: 7.5° turns / 2° straights

I refuse to call this race anything but the “Brickyard 400”.

Sorry Allstate.

I will be there, Paddock Penthouse - can’t remember what section we’re in but it’s just before the Yard of Bricks. Great view of most of Pit Road.

Go Roush-Fenway!

Anyone but a Freaking ‘yota !!!!!

Hello, everyone. Don’t get to join you very often.

Looks like I’m going to have to get used to my guy driving the number 14 next year. I guess Home Depot isn’t following him?

[Trueblackman]

Okay guys I am in, she, who must be obeyed has had the computer.

Tire Wear, would be a understatement today.
