Excellent Summary of Motorcycle Races

This content was originally published in the August 15, 1909 Indianapolis Star. If you don't read anything else, this is the package you need to read to get a handle on the first motorized competition at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Because the race meet, originally planned as a two-day affair, was curtailed early to end at a single day, all the action is packed into these articles. This package is 11 PDF pages. Among the features is a full list of the results of the various races of the meet and a sidebar that discusses the dimensions of the track and its cost, estimated at $350,000.
