Automobile races – oval[]
Prest-O-Lite Trophy, Wheeler-Schebler Trophy, and other early automobile races (1909–1910)[]
On four race weekends in 1909 and 1910, a total of 82 automobile races were held, with lengths varying between 5 and 250 miles. Of these, 17 were of distance of 20 miles or more.[1] None of the short races served as a qualifying race, or "heat" race, for the longer events. Each race stood on its own, and awarded its own trophy. All 82 races were sanctioned by the American Automobile Association (AAA). The 1909 races took place on the original crushed stone and tar surface. As the weekend progressed, the track surface began breaking up badly, and the final race of the weekend, scheduled for a 300-mile length, was shortened to 235 miles. The next scheduled weekend of auto races, planned for early October, was canceled so the track could be repaved in brick during the fall of 1909. Over two days in December, several automobile and motorcycle racers conducted speed exhibitions, in extremely cold temperatures. No races had been planned for that event. The next races were run over three holiday weekends in 1910.

Indianapolis 500 (since 1911)[]
The Indianapolis 500, introduced as the International 500-Mile Sweepstakes in 1911, has been held on Memorial Day, or the Memorial Day weekend, every year since (excluding six years during the World Wars). In 2020, due to the 2019-20 coronavirus pandemic, the race was postponed to August. The race has been sanctioned by the American Automobile Association (AAA) from 1911 to 1955, by the United States Automobile Club (USAC) from 1956 to 1997, and by the Indy Racing League (IRL) from 1998 to the present.

Notes: | |||||||
As of 2021, 105 races had been conducted, with 73 different drivers credited as winning the race. The record for most wins is four, accomplished by four drivers. In 1924 and 1941, co-winners were declared. In each of those cases, the first named co-winner started the race in the winning car, while the second named co-winner started the race in another car, and finished the race in the winning car. | |||||||
The 1916 race was scheduled for 300 miles. However, it is still included in official records as part of the continuous lineage of the Indianapolis 500-mile race. | |||||||
The race was shortened due to rain in 1926, 1950, 1973, 1975, 1976, 2004 and 2007. | |||||||
The race counted toward the AAA National Championship in 1916, and from 1920 through 1955. It was also included in the championship designations for 1911 through 1915, and 1919, which were retroactively awarded in 1926 and again in 1951. The 500 was then a part of the USAC National Championship (later called the Gold Crown Championship) from 1955 through 1995. During the years 1985 through 1995, the Gold Crown Championship consisted of only this race. From 1996 to date, the 500 has been a part of the IndyCar Series (formerly known as the Indy Racing League) championship. | |||||||
From 1950 through 1960, the Indianapolis 500 was earned points toward the FIA World's Driver's Championship. However, it was not called the United States Grand Prix, and Formula 1 cars were not used. During that time, also, few European Formula 1 drivers ever made the trip to compete. | |||||||
In 1979 and 1980, and from 1983 through 1995, the Indianapolis 500 earned points toward the CART World Series championship. However, the race was never sanctioned or administered by CART. |
Harvest Auto Racing Classic (1916)[]
The Harvest Auto Racing Classic was a series of three races, of 20, 50, and 100 mile lengths, held in September 1916. The event was sanctioned by the American Automobile Association (AAA), and the 100 mile feature race counted toward the 1916 AAA National Championship.[2][3][4]

Brickyard 400 (1994–2020)[]
The Brickyard 400 is an annual stock car race that is part of NASCAR Cup Series. This event, when first held in 1994, marked the first race other than the Indianapolis 500 to be held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway since 1916. From 2005 to 2009, the race was known as the Allstate 400 at the Brickyard, under a naming rights arrangement with Allstate Insurance. From 2012 to 2016, the race was known as the Crown Royal Presents the (Your Hero's Name Here) 400 at the Brickyard, under the naming rights arrangement with Diageo, which included an annual contest in which the winner would have his/her name attached to the race. The race remains commonly known as the Brickyard 400.
In 2018, the race was moved from its summer date to early September, serving as the final race before the NASCAR playoffs.[5] Two years later, the 400 switched places with Daytona International Speedway's Coke Zero Sugar 400 to become the Cup Series' Independence Day weekend round.[6]
The race shifted to the infield road course in 2021.[7]

Automobile races – road course[]
United States Grand Prix at Indianapolis (2000–2007)[]
Beginning in 2000, the United States Grand Prix at Indianapolis, a round of the Formula One World Championship, was held on a combined road course, utilizing part of the oval and a new infield segment. The first running was widely popular, and marked the return of Formula One to the United States for the first time since 1991.
During the 2005 Formula One season, a rule mandated all cars must run an entire (305 km / 190 miles) race on one set of tires, and there was a tire war between Bridgestone and Michelin during the season. That led to controversy when two crashes in practice took place with Michelin-shod cars because of tire failure, especially with the high g-loads through turns 12 and 13. On race morning, all cars utilizing Michelin tires withdrew from the race on the formation lap due to safety concerns and the rules in question at the time. The controversy tarnished the event, angered fans and media, and led to costly ticket refunds.
The event recovered, with successful races held in 2006 and 2007, but crowds never matched the year 2000 attendance. After the contract expired in 2007, an agreement could not be reached to hold the race in 2008. A future return to Indianapolis had been rumored, but was always denied. Speedway officials claimed they made profit on the first four runnings, but lost money on the last four runnings. After the announcement of a new United States Grand Prix in Austin, and management and schedule changes at the Speedway, a return of Formula One is highly unlikely.

The IndyCar Big Machine Spiked Coolers Grand Prix, the second IndyCar Sereies meeting of the season, was originally the Harvest Grand Prix when first organised in 2020 as two IndyCar Series races, scheduled as part of revisions to the 2020 IndyCar Series calendar due to the 2019-20 coronavirus pandemic. These races were also held as support to the Indianapolis 8 Hours. Although the name pays tribute to the Harvest Auto Racing Classic, these events are unrelated.
The secondary INDYCAR race was moved to the NASCAR weekend in 2021, as part of the Verizon 200 at the Brickyard weekend. The idea of pairing INDYCAR and NASCAR was part changes caused by the pandemic in 2020, and made part of the NASCAR weekend officially in 2021.

Brick track re-opening (1909)[]
After the original track surface of crushed stone and tar proved unsuitable, during the August 1909 races, the decision was made to re-pave the track with brick. Once that was completed, and a retaining wall added, a two-day time trial session was conducted.[1][23] Ten drivers and riders drove partial laps alone, attempting speed records at various distances of one mile and less. In addition, there was one 20-mile free-for-all session, with seven cars running concurrently. Finally, Lewis Strang drove a two-lap session. Although no races were held, or planned, the public was admitted, and programs were sold.[24]

Indianapolis Auto Show Stunt Driving Competition (1910)[]
Several weeks before its first auto races of 1910, the Speedway held a special competition, in conjunction with the Indianapolis Auto Show. Six stunts were attempted while driving, including popping balloons with the wheels, and balancing the car on a teeter board.[1] Most of the stunts required the participation of a passenger, such as dropping a potato into a basket, and holding a rubber ball in a spoon. At least two of the participants were professional race drivers (Harry Endicott and Johnny Aitken). The winner apparently was not, as his name does not appear in available race statistics of the day. The drivers in this event also included Katrina Fertig, making her the first woman to drive in a competition (though not in a race, as such) at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

Hazard Race (1910)[]
The second day of the May, 1910, race weekend started with a special event, a "Hazard Race."[1] Each car went out separately, driving over portable ramps on the track, into the creek in the infield, under the track, into the parking lot, across the automobile bridge over the track, and eventually back onto the track. The total distance was a bit over a lap, and the winner was determined by the best time.

In August 1916, the Union Printers' National Baseball League held its annual tournament in Indianapolis. A special event for the entertainment of tournament participants was a day of exhibition automobile races held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway[23][25] Because the races were not part of a recognized series, and were conducted for a private audience, this is not generally regarded as an official race event.

In September 1921, the American Society for Steel Treating held its annual convention in Indianapolis. A special event during this convention was an exhibition automobile race held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway[23] Because this race was not part of a recognized series, and was for a private audience, it is not generally regarded as an official race event.

Stevens Challenge Trophy (1927–1954)[]
Beginning in 1927, The Samuel B. Stevens Challenge Trophy was offered to any automobile manufacturer to run a strictly stock, production automobile at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, for a period of 24 hours at an average speed of 60 miles per hour or more. This was not a race as such, as only one team participated in any instance. Four manufactures earned the trophy over the next 27 years. The trophy was retired after Chrysler's win in 1954.[26][27][28][29]
Ford made an unsuccessful run 1956 with drivers Johnny Mantz, Chuck Stevenson, Chuck Davis, and Danny Ames. Though they failed to complete the 24 hours, they did set a 500-mile stock car record at the Speedway of 111.916 mph.[30]

Stadium Super Trucks (2014)[]
In 2014, the Stadium Super Trucks, officially known as Speed Energy Formula Off-Road, held a doubleheader event on a small modified course at the northwest corner of the track. This incorporated a portion of the oval track's pit entry, two small portions of the road course, a segment of an access lane, and dirt areas in between, with two jump ramps added. This occurred during the Indy 500's Carb Day activities,[35] and marked the first time in track history that trucks were raced.[36] Series founder Robby Gordon had tested at the track in April.[37]
