Competitive events for professional-level, <a href="/wiki/Open-wheel_car" title="Open-wheel car">open-wheel race cars</a> have been conducted under the auspices of various sanctioning bodies, tracing its roots as far back as 1902. A season-long, points-based, <i>National Championship</i> of drivers has been officially recognized in 1905, 1916, and each year since 1920 (except for a hiatus during <a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">WWII</a>). As such, for many years, the category of racing was known as <b>Championship car racing</b> (or <b>Champ car racing</b> for short). That name has fallen from use, and the term <i>Indy car</i> racing (derived from the <a href="/wiki/Indianapolis_500" title="Indianapolis 500">Indy 500</a>) has become the preferred moniker. </p><p>The machines, typically referred to as "Indy cars", are a <a href="/wiki/Formula_racing" title="Formula racing">formula</a> of single-seat, open <a href="/wiki/Cockpit" title="Cockpit">cockpit</a>, <a href="/wiki/Open-wheel_car" title="Open-wheel car">open-wheel</a>, purpose-built race cars. They compete on a variety of circuits, including <a href="/wiki/Oval_track_racing" title="Oval track racing">ovals</a>, <a href="/wiki/Road_racing" title="Road racing">road courses</a>, <a href="/wiki/Street_circuit" title="Street circuit">street circuits</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Oval_track_racing#Combined_road_course" title="Oval track racing">combined road courses</a>.

Over the decades, Indy cars have been generally similar to those in <a href="/wiki/Formula_One" title="Formula One">Formula One</a>, though there are important differences. Though the <a href="/wiki/IndyCar_Series" title="IndyCar Series">IndyCar Series</a> is U.S.-based, international races have occasionally been held; in such places as Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Japan, Australia, as well as Europe. </p><p>This form of racing experienced considerable growth and popularity in the decades after <a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a>. The "<a href="/wiki/Indianapolis_500_by_year#Roadster_Era" title="Indianapolis 500 by year">Golden Era</a>" of the <a href="/wiki/Front-engine,_rear-wheel-drive_layout" title="Front-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout">front-engined</a> <a href="/wiki/Roadster_(automobile)#IndyCar_roadster_layout" class="mw-redirect" title="Roadster (automobile)">roadsters</a> was followed by a decade of <a href="/wiki/Indianapolis_500_by_year#Rear-engine_revolution" title="Indianapolis 500 by year">innovation</a> and transition in the 1960s. By the late-1960s and early-1970s, the cars had rapidly evolved to <a href="/wiki/Rear_mid-engine,_rear-wheel-drive_layout" title="Rear mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout">rear-engined</a>, formula-style machines. Speeds climbed on the <a href="/wiki/Oval_track_racing#Superspeedway" title="Oval track racing">superspeedways</a> to over 200 miles per hour (320 km/h), while international participation also increased. The sport saw much success, exposure, and popularity particularly during the 1980s–1990s under the sanctioning of <a href="/wiki/Championship_Auto_Racing_Teams" title="Championship Auto Racing Teams">Championship Auto Racing Teams</a> (CART). Organizational disputes in <a href="/wiki/1979_Indianapolis_500#USAC/CART_"Split"" title="1979 Indianapolis 500">1979</a> and <a href="/wiki/1996_Indianapolis_500#IRL/CART_split" title="1996 Indianapolis 500">1996</a> split participants and the fanbase among two separate sanctioning bodies. The sport was re-unified in <a href="/wiki/2008_IndyCar_Series" title="2008 IndyCar Series">2008</a>, and in late 2019, IndyCar was bought by <a href="/wiki/Roger_Penske" title="Roger Penske">Roger Penske</a> and <a href="/wiki/Penske_Corporation" title="Penske Corporation">Penske Entertainment</a>. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Sanctioning_bodies">Sanctioning bodies</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=American_open-wheel_car_racing&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Sanctioning bodies"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="AAA_(1902–1955)"><span id="AAA_.281902.E2.80.931955.29"></span>AAA (1902–1955)</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=American_open-wheel_car_racing&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: AAA (1902–1955)"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:1916Indianapolis500Field.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4e/1916Indianapolis500Field.jpg/220px-1916Indianapolis500Field.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="175" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4e/1916Indianapolis500Field.jpg/330px-1916Indianapolis500Field.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/4e/1916Indianapolis500Field.jpg 2x" data-file-width="420" data-file-height="334" /></a><figcaption>Field of <a href="/wiki/1916_Indianapolis_500" title="1916 Indianapolis 500">1916 Indianapolis 500</a>, first Indianapolis 500 held as a part of National Championship</figcaption></figure> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:ZekeMeyer6th.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f8/ZekeMeyer6th.jpg/220px-ZekeMeyer6th.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="177" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f8/ZekeMeyer6th.jpg/330px-ZekeMeyer6th.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f8/ZekeMeyer6th.jpg/440px-ZekeMeyer6th.jpg 2x" data-file-width="3007" data-file-height="2423" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Zeke_Meyer" title="Zeke Meyer">Zeke Meyer</a> at <a href="/wiki/1932_Indianapolis_500" title="1932 Indianapolis 500">1932 Indianapolis 500</a></figcaption></figure> <p>The national championship was sanctioned by the <a href="/wiki/AAA_Contest_Board" title="AAA Contest Board">Contest Board</a> of the <a href="/wiki/American_Automobile_Association" title="American Automobile Association">American Automobile Association</a> (AAA).

Championship racing continued to grow in popularity in a stabilized environment for over two decades, with the two traditional disciplines of paved oval tracks and dirt oval tracks. During the 1950s, front-engined "roadsters" became the dominant cars on the paved oval tracks, while "upright" Champ Dirt Cars continued to dominate on dirt tracks. In the 1960s, drivers and team owners with road racing backgrounds, both American and foreign, began creeping into the series and the paved oval track cars evolved from front-engine "<a href="/wiki/Roadster_(automobile)" class="mw-redirect" title="Roadster (automobile)">roadsters</a>" to rear-engine <a href="/wiki/Formula_racing" title="Formula racing">formula-style racers</a>. Technology, speed, and expense climbed at a rapid rate. The schedule continued to be dominated by oval tracks, but a few road course races were added to assuage the newcomers. Dirt tracks were dropped from the national championship after 1970. </p><p>During the 1970s, the increasing costs began to drive some of the traditional USAC car owners out of the sport. The dominant teams became Penske, Patrick, Gurney, and McLaren, all run by people with road racing backgrounds. There was a growing dissent between these teams and USAC management. Events outside Indianapolis were suffering from low attendance, and poor promotion. The Indy 500 was televised on a same day tape delayed basis on ABC, however, most of the other races had little or no coverage on television. </p><p>Towards the end of the decade, the growing dissent prompted several car owners to consider creating a new sanctioning body to conduct the races.

Therefore, there were two national championships run each by USAC and CART. The Indianapolis 500 remained under USAC sanction. The top teams allied to CART, and the CART championship quickly became the more prestigious national championship.

The Indianapolis 500 was sanctioned singly by USAC, but points were paid towards the CART season championship. The cars and engines used in the CART races and USAC-sanctioned Indy 500 were the same, with only relatively minor rules differences. The Indy 500 field would consist of the CART regulars, and numerous one-off ("Indy only") entries.

This provided that the Indianapolis 500 would be the final race of the respective season.

After the IRL announced that 25 teams that competed in IRL races would get automatic qualifications to the race, making it impossible for the majority of the CART field to make the race, CART teams boycotted the 1996 Indy 500. It was the beginning of the second open-wheel "split". Initially, USAC sanctioned the IRL, however after officiating controversies in 1997 at Indianapolis and <a href="/wiki/Bombardier_Learjet_550" class="mw-redirect" title="Bombardier Learjet 550">Texas</a>, the USAC was replaced by the IRL's in-house officiating. </p><p>CART, which had been licensing the trademarked "IndyCar" name for several seasons, subsequently entered into a legal battle with the Indianapolis Motor Speedway (the trademark owner) over the use of the moniker.

Early nomenclature was to call the machines "Championship Cars", which was later shortened to "Champ Cars". This was a simple, yet descriptive term, which positively identified the machines as those that competed for the National <i>Championship</i>. The term "Big Cars" saw some limited use; a term that identified the machines as larger and faster than junior formulae such as <a href="/wiki/Sprint_car_racing" title="Sprint car racing">sprints</a> and <a href="/wiki/Midget_car_racing" title="Midget car racing">midgets</a>. That term disappeared from use and was instead largely used for <a href="/wiki/Sprint_car_racing" title="Sprint car racing">Sprint cars</a>. However, some promoters continued to advertise their championship events with the term "Big Cars", which leads to some inconsistencies. In the post-<a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a> era, the term "Speedway Cars" saw limited use; a loosely descriptive term, distinguishing the machines as those driven at the Indianapolis Motor <i>Speedway</i> and other major <i>speedways</i>, as opposed to those driven at smaller tracks, for instance. Nevertheless, the term "Championship/Champ Cars" prevailed as the preferred moniker.<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In most years since the USAC era, the term "Indy cars" (after the <a href="/wiki/Indianapolis_500" title="Indianapolis 500">Indy 500</a>) has taken over as the preferred moniker. Apropos to that, when <a href="/wiki/Championship_Auto_Racing_Teams" title="Championship Auto Racing Teams">CART</a> was founded in 1979, its <a href="/wiki/Acronym" title="Acronym">acronym</a> stood for <i>Championship Auto Racing Teams</i>, a reflection of the historical use of the term "Championship Car". From its onset, CART started marketed itself with the two-word "Indy Car" term, advertising itself as the "CART Indy Car World Series". </p><p>Through the mid-1990s, the term "Indy car" referred to machines used to compete in events sanctioned by <a href="/wiki/Championship_Auto_Racing_Teams" title="Championship Auto Racing Teams">CART</a>, as well as the machines competing in the <a href="/wiki/Indianapolis_500" title="Indianapolis 500">Indianapolis 500</a> (sanctioned singly by <a href="/wiki/United_States_Automobile_Club" class="mw-redirect" title="United States Automobile Club">USAC</a>). </p><p>In 1992, the <a href="/wiki/CamelCase" class="mw-redirect" title="CamelCase">CamelCase</a> term "IndyCar" was trademarked by <a href="/wiki/Indianapolis_Motor_Speedway" title="Indianapolis Motor Speedway">IMS, Inc.</a> It was licensed to CART from 1992 through 1996. After the inception of the <a href="/wiki/IndyCar" title="IndyCar">Indy Racing League</a> in 1996, the terms of the contract were voided after a lawsuit. As part of the settlement, the term was shelved by a six-year non-use agreement. Following the settlement, and the lack of connection to the <a href="/wiki/Indianapolis_500" title="Indianapolis 500">Indy 500</a>, CART decided to revert to the former term. It re-assumed the name <a href="/wiki/Championship_Auto_Racing_Teams" title="Championship Auto Racing Teams">CART</a>, and the machines would be referred to again as "Champ cars". This continued after CART was reorganized into <a href="/wiki/Champ_Car_World_Series" title="Champ Car World Series">CCWS</a>. </p><p>Complicating the situation resulting from the open-wheel split, CART/Champ Car races held outside the United States were still permitted to use the <i>Indy</i> moniker (e.g., <a href="/wiki/Honda_Indy_Toronto" class="mw-redirect" title="Honda Indy Toronto">Molson Indy Toronto</a> and <a href="/wiki/Nikon_Indy_300" class="mw-redirect" title="Nikon Indy 300">Lexmark Indy 300</a>). Foreign venue promoters took advantage of the marketing power of the Indy 500 name for their events, even though the Champ Car series they were promoting no longer had any ties to that race. The exceptions created confusion, and Champ Car gradually phased out the usage to distance itself further from the IRL. </p><p>After the settlement expired in 2003, the term IndyCar was brought back. The Indy Racing League was re-branded as the "IRL IndyCar Series". The machines in the series were also referred to as "Indy cars". Despite the official acknowledgment, media and fans alike would continue to use the term "IRL" to describe the series, and to a lesser extent, "IRL cars" to describe the machines. Removing the "IRL" term from use proved difficult. </p><p>With two series (<a href="/wiki/IndyCar_Series" title="IndyCar Series">IndyCar</a> and <a href="/wiki/Champ_Car_World_Series" title="Champ Car World Series">Champ Car</a>) still competing parallel, the umbrella terms "Open Wheel Cars" and "Open Wheel Racing" saw increased use during the split and post-split era. Many drivers had logged starts in both series at one time or another during their careers.

Races on both continents were mostly point-to-point races, and large ovals tracks emerged on both continents. But in America, racing took off at horse-race tracks and at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, while in Europe, racing from point to point and around large circuits gained in popularity. Grand Prix racing (which became <a href="/wiki/Formula_One" title="Formula One">Formula One</a>) and <a href="/wiki/Rallying" title="Rallying">rallying</a> then diverged in Europe. Formula One was established after World War II as the World Championship for road racing, and F1 cars became increasingly specialized and high-tech. </p><p>In the 1960s, road racing gained popularity in North America, and Formula One-style design ideas changed IndyCars, which until then had all been classic-styled front-engined roadsters. When North America's road racing championship, <a href="/wiki/Can-Am" title="Can-Am">Can-Am Challenge</a>, collapsed in the 1970s, the IndyCars were ready to fill the void. IndyCar was a combination road- and oval-racing championship from this time until the Split. Compared to F1 cars, IndyCars were partly specialized for oval-racing: they were larger and had other safety features,<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources. (August 2015)">citation needed</span></a></i>]</sup> and were designed to run at the higher speeds necessary for oval racing. Because IndyCars were usually "customer" cars that the teams purchased from constructors, and because of rules to contain costs, they were considerably less expensive than F1 cars, each model of which was designed by the team that used it. After the Split in the 1990s, CART maintained the old formula while the IRL drifted toward the "spec" design that has been the only IndyCar model since 2003 (which changed in 2012, with specialized aero kits available from 2015 to 2017). </p><p>As engine formulas have changed, and as engine technology has developed over time, F1 cars and IndyCars have each produced more power than the other at different times. But for the foreseeable future, F1 cars will have considerably more power than the spec IndyCar. </p><p><a href="/wiki/Alex_Zanardi" title="Alex Zanardi">Alex Zanardi</a>, who drove both in F1 and CART, said that the lighter, naturally aspirated F1 car was more responsive and accelerated off the turns faster, while the turbocharged CART car was more stable and accelerated to top speed faster. </p><p>More recently <a href="/wiki/FIA_Formula_2_Championship" title="FIA Formula 2 Championship">Formula 2</a> drivers <a href="/wiki/Callum_Ilott" title="Callum Ilott">Callum Ilott</a> and <a href="/wiki/Christian_Lundgaard" title="Christian Lundgaard">Christian Lundgaard</a>, who are both also test and reserve drivers for <a href="/wiki/Alpine_F1" class="mw-redirect" title="Alpine F1">Alpine F1</a> and <a href="/wiki/Scuderia_Ferrari" title="Scuderia Ferrari">Scuderia Ferrari</a> respectively, have stated that the modern <a href="/wiki/Dallara_DW12" title="Dallara DW12">Dallara DW12</a> spec car used in the IndyCar Series sits in between a Formula 2 and a Formula One car on road and street courses in terms of performance. Both Ilott and Lundgaard have stated that the IndyCar's lack of power steering combined with the lower downforce levels and roughly 100 horsepower advantage make the IndyCar harder to drive than a Formula 2 car. Both noted however that around a road or street course the Formula One car would be significantly faster than an IndyCar. </p><p>There is debate on which series is more demanding. Some point out that champions that retired from F1 have won CART championships: e.g., Emerson Fittipaldi and Nigel Mansell. Drivers who did not excel in F1 have continued their careers in IndyCar with varying levels of success. Some successful IndyCar drivers have tried but failed to get a seat in even a low level Formula One team. A handful of notable IndyCar drivers, however, found subsequent success in F1, including Mario Andretti and Jacques Villeneuve, who became Formula One champions, and Juan Pablo Montoya, who won several F1 races. Conversely, some point to the different track designs of IndyCar (see below) as a bigger challenge to the drivers. Former <a href="/wiki/Haas_F1" class="mw-redirect" title="Haas F1">Haas F1</a> driver <a href="/wiki/Romain_Grosjean" title="Romain Grosjean">Romain Grosjean</a> stated in 2021 that a modern IndyCar is more physically exerting to drive than a modern Formula One car but that the Formula One car was more mentally taxing due to all its additional complexity, horsepower, and downforce levels compared to the IndyCar as well as the need to manage fuel levels given that Formula One cars do not refuel during the race while IndyCar racing allows refueling during races. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Open-wheel_cars">Open-wheel cars</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=American_open-wheel_car_racing&action=edit&section=12" title="Edit section: Open-wheel cars"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li>"Indy car" is a generic name for championship <a href="/wiki/Open-wheel_car" title="Open-wheel car">open-wheel auto racing</a> in the United States.
