The land for the new speedway was about one and a half miles in length and about a half mile wide, covering an area of about 320 acres. 1 “Details of the New Motor Speedway Planned by the Hoosiers,” Motor Age, 21 January 1909, Volume XV No. 3, p. 27. The outside – or oval – track was to be fifty feet wide on the straights and sixty feet wide in the curves, while the inside – or road – track was to be twenty-five feet wide on the straights and thirty-five feet in the turns. The three main grandstands would have a capacity of thirty-five thousand with an additional twenty smaller grandstands, raised ten feet above the track, holding about fifty spectators at various locations along the outer track. The club house of the Indian- apolis Motor Car Club would be located on the grounds, along with buildings to house training quarters and storage for racing teams.
