Also known as the Brickyard or IMS, the track was built in 1909 as a 2.5-mile-oval track, making it one of the oldest auto racing tracks in the world. The first Indianapolis 500 was held in 1911 and has run continuously on Memorial Day weekend each year, with the exception of the years during World War I and II. The track is known as a proving ground for many advancements in automotive technology and design.

The 500 was the lone event held at the speedway for a number of years, with fans buying Indianapolis Motor Speedway tickets to see the likes of Foyt, Andretti, Mears and the Unser family become legends. In 1994, NASCAR was welcomed to the track for the inaugural Brickyard 400, which has grown into a crown jewel event for the cup series. The Xfinity Series was added to the Brickyard race weekend in 2012. A road course was added in 2000 to host Formula 1’s United States Grand Prix and MotoGP. This road course is now used for the IndyCar Series to host the Grand Prix of Indianapolis.
