Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum 2018
Explore the Rich History of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and Auto Racing!
The Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum, located five miles northwest of downtown Indianapolis on the grounds of The Greatest Race Course in the World, and is recognized as one of the most highly visible museums in the world devoted to automobiles and auto racing. In 1987, the Speedway grounds were honored with the designation of National Historic Landmark.
Anton Tony Hulman Jr. and Karl Kizer, the Museum's first director, established a museum in 1956 to display race vehicles and memorabilia, principally associated with the Indianapolis 500 race. The first Museum building was located at the southwest corner of the Speedway's property where the Speedway's Administration Building now stands. It was large enough only to display a few vintage race cars. Before long, it was obvious something more substantial was needed.
During 1975, Hulman built the larger, more modern Museum facility within the Speedway oval, its opening coinciding with the United States Bicentennial celebration in 1976. Constructed of pre-cast cement and Wyoming quartz, the Museum’s display space measures approximately 36,000 square feet. The building also houses two gift shops owned by the Speedway, the track's retail photography store, and other offices.
The Museum’s collection encompasses race cars from many series including IndyCar, NASCAR, Formula One, Sprint, Midget, motorcycle races, and drag racing. The collection encompasses motorcycles, dragsters, cars and other vehicles that have set world land speed records at various points in history.
You can visit the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum website for more information. View Website The Museum is operated by an independent, non-profit charity.

Behind The Doors Of The Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum
This weekend on an all-new PowerNation we are on location at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum in Speedway, Indiana. Katie and Gannon check out the museum where on any given day you can find 60 historic cars, 30 race winners, and of course, the coveted Borg-Warner Trophy. If that's not enough you can see race memorabilia and other artifacts. The first-ever Indy 500 racecar winner from 1911 is stored in the museum and guess how much horsepower it made? 100 HP! Compare that to today's cars that are pushing out 500-700 HP!
They take us through the process of moving the cars, and Rob McCrary of Sonax USA, who is the official car car supplier for the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum, shows us how they maintain the cars. Only the best products are trusted on these irreplaceable cars and Gannon gives Rob a hand in showing off just how well their products work!
It's a show you won't want to miss. Plus all four shops have brand new tech for you so tune in to Paramount Network Sunday at 9AM ET!

INDIANAPOLIS MOTOR SPEEDWAY-MUSEUM-INDY 500-QUALIFYING-EP28
We left Louisville, and stopped in Indianapolis. Obviously, we had to see the Indy Speedway and Museum! It was exciting because they were gearing up for the Indy 500 on Memorial weekend, just one week away! We were the last group to drive on the racetrack for our tour because the next day they were practicing for the 500! Talk about being in the right place at the right time!!
Well the next day it rained, so we did other things. Serendipity again jumped to our rescue. There turned out to be a giant Mecum Car Auction at the Indiana State Fair Grounds where we were staying. This CG is highly recommended. Its cheap, and is the perfect location for doing lots of things in the area. Full hookup.
The following day we were back at the Indy track for qualifying. All of the drivers were there working to win the pole position for the upcoming race. Multiple cars were almost always on the track at full 225+ miles per hour. It felt like a real race, but with 1/1000th the people around.
We started on the shady side and just followed the sun. We had amazing track access considering we only paid 15 US dollars each, which includes infield close parking. Mark felt like a man because he was able to wear hearing protection and drink beer. You are allowed to bring in your own coolers! He even brought along a stopwatch!
I don't think anyone knew it was normally used to time the rinse cycle during our black tank flush. He made sure to clean it up with some Clorox wipes first. If you don't know what a black tank is,.........it's the naughty one……...

The Indianapolis Motor Speedway
The Indianapolis Motor Speedway is an automobile racing circuit located in Speedway, Indiana, (an enclave suburb of Indianapolis) in the United States. It is the home of the Indianapolis 500 and the Brickyard 400, and formerly the home of the United States Grand Prix. It is located on the corner of 16th Street and Georgetown Road, approximately six miles (10 km) west of Downtown Indianapolis.
Constructed in 1909, it is the second purpose built banked oval racing circuit after Brooklands and the first to be called a 'speedway'. It has a permanent seating capacity estimated at 235,000 with infield seating raising capacity to an approximate 400,000. It is the highest-capacity sports venue in the world.
Considered relatively flat by American standards, the track is a 2.5-mile-long (4.0 km) rectangular oval with dimensions that have remained essentially unchanged since its construction. It has two 5⁄8-mile-long (1,000 m) straightaways, four geometrically identical 1⁄4-mile (400 m) turns, connected by two 1⁄8-mile (200 m) short straightaways, termed short chutes, between turns 1 and 2, and between turns 3 and 4.
A modern infield road course was completed in 2000, incorporating part of the oval, including the mainstretch and the southeast turn, measuring 2.605 miles (4.192 km). In 2008, and again in 2014, the road course layout was modified to accommodate motorcycle racing, as well as to improve competition. Altogether, the current grounds have expanded from an original 320 acres (1.3 km2) on which the speedway was first built to cover an area of over 559 acres (2.3 km2). Placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975 and designated a National Historic Landmark in 1987, it is the only such site to be affiliated with automotive racing history.
In addition to the Indianapolis 500, the speedway also hosts NASCAR's Brantley Gilbert Big Machine Brickyard 400 and Lilly Diabetes 250. From 2000 to 2007, the speedway hosted the Formula One United States Grand Prix, and from 2008 to 2015 the Moto GP.
On the grounds of the speedway is the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum, which opened in 1956, and houses the Auto Racing Hall of Fame. The museum moved into its current building located in the infield in 1976. Also on the grounds is the Brickyard Crossing Golf Resort, which originally opened as the Speedway Golf Course in 1929. The golf course has 14 holes outside of the track, along the backstretch, and four holes in the infield. The speedway also served as the venue for the opening ceremonies for the 1987 Pan American Games.
