The IndyCar Series held auto racing events at Texas Motor Speedway, near Fort Worth, Texas, from 1997 until 2023. The races had a variety of different title sponsors and distances over the years, and therefore the Texas round has changed names frequently. The latest event, held in 2023, was called the '''PPG 375'''.

==History== The first Championship/Indy car races in the Dallas/Fort Worth area took place at Arlington Downs Raceway in nearby Arlington, Texas. AAA sanctioned five races from 1947 to 1950. USAC sanctioned ten Championship car events at Texas World Speedway in College Station, Texas. The race was discontinued when the track closed in 1981.

In 1997, the Indy Racing League debuted at Texas Motor Speedway. The event was traditionally a single race held on a Saturday night in early June. On two occasions, (2011, 2021) the even was held as a twin-race format. From 1997 to 2005, and again in 2010–2011, it served as the first race after the Indianapolis 500. In 2020, it served as the season opener due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2021 the event moved to the first weekend in May, and in 2022–2023 the event was run in March.

Texas Motor Speedway was removed from the schedule for the 2024 season after the series and track were unable to agree on a date.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Brittle |first1=Cian |title=IndyCar: Texas Motor Speedway return not guaranteed in 2025 |url=https://www.blackbookmotorsport.com/news/indycar-texas-motor-speedway/ |website=BlackBook Motorsport |access-date=27 September 2024 |date=11 January 2024}}</ref> In September 2024, ''RACER'' reported that IndyCar would begin racing on a new street circuit around AT&T Stadium in Arlington starting in 2026.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Pruett |first1=Marshall |title=IndyCar set for Dallas street race in 2026 |url=https://racer.com/2024/09/27/indycar-set-for-dallas-street-race-in-2026/ |website=RACER |access-date=27 September 2024 |date=27 September 2024}}</ref> This report would be confirmed the next month, with the race being called the Grand Prix of Arlington.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Pruett |first1=Marshall |title=IndyCar GP of Arlington confirmed for 2026 |url=https://racer.com/2024/10/07/indycar-gp-of-arlington-confirmed-for-2026/ |website=RACER |access-date=8 October 2024 |date=7 October 2024}}</ref>

===Second race=== From 1998 to 2004, a second 500 km race was held at the track in the fall. It served as the Indy Racing League/IndyCar Series season finale for each of its runnings.

In 2003, Gil de Ferran was leading on lap 187 (of 200) when Kenny Bräck crashed on the backstretch. Bräck suffered critical injuries, and he raced only limitedly afterwards. With the race winding down under caution, and with cleanup still ongoing, officials halted the race on lap 195 when it was clear they would not have time to go back to green. de Ferran was declared the winner in what was his final Indy car race (he had announced his retirement during the season).

==Race length== When the track opened, the one-lap distance was measured as {{convert|1.5|mi|km}}. IndyCar Series races were originally 208 laps (312 mi/500 km) long. In 2001, timing and scoring officials revised the measurement as {{convert|1.455|mi|km}}, and the races were changed to an even 200 laps (291 mi/468.319 km). In 2007, the race was lengthened to 228 laps in an effort to create a longer product for time value purposes. Using the traditional {{convert|1.5|mi|km|adj=on}} measurement, the race became 342 miles (550.4 km). However, official IndyCar timing and scoring maintained the {{convert|1.455|mi|km|adj=on}} measurement, and the race was officially 331.74 miles (533.88 km). In 2014, the race was extended to 600 kilometers.<ref>{{cite web|last=Lewandowski|first=Dave|url=http://www.indycar.com/News/2013/09/9-23-Laps-added-to-2014-Texas-Motor-Speedway-race/|title=Fans to get more mileage out of 2014 race at TMS|publisher=IndyCar Series|date=2013-09-24|access-date=2013-09-23}}</ref> After revamping the oval track in 2016, the new one lap measurement is 1.44 miles for lap speed calculations.<ref>{{Cite web| title=Rainguard Water Sealers 600 - Texas Motor Speedway - Qualifications | url=http://www.imscdn.com/INDYCAR/Documents/3756/2017-06-09/indycar-results-quals.pdf | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180612145159/http://www.imscdn.com/INDYCAR/Documents/3756/2017-06-09/indycar-results-quals.pdf | archive-date=2018-06-12}}</ref>

In addition, the start time was moved to 9:00 p.m. CDT (10:00 p.m. EDT) so the event would take place almost entirely under the lights, rather than in the mid-summer twilight.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.motorsport.com/news/article.asp?ID=240094&FS=INDYCAR|title=IRL: Indy Racing League News and Notes 2006-12-12|access-date=9 June 2018|archive-date=2011-06-06|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110606162250/http://www.motorsport.com/news/article.asp?ID=240094&FS=INDYCAR|url-status=dead}}</ref>

The race was slightly shortened to 300 miles and 200 laps in 2020, due to COVID-19 pandemic protocols that used same-day practice and qualifying for the event. The 2020 Genesys 300 was the first IndyCar event since a hiatus due to the pandemic.<ref>{{Cite web|title=IndyCar return for 2020 season will be at Texas without fans|url=https://motorsports.nbcsports.com/2020/05/07/indycar-return-2020-season-opener-texas-motor-speedway-covid-19-healthy-safety-info/|date=2020-05-07|website=NBC Sports|language=en-US|access-date=2020-05-22}}</ref> The 300-mile distance will also be used for 2021.<ref name="auto">{{cite news|last=Ryan|first=Nate|date=October 1, 2020|title=IndyCar announces its 2021 schedule|publisher=NBC Sports|url=https://motorsports.nbcsports.com/2020/10/01/indycar-2021-schedule-nbc-texas-motor-speedway-nashville/|access-date=October 13, 2020}}</ref>

===Twin races=== For 2011, a special Twin race format was adopted, a throwback to the USAC-style twin races of the 1970s and early 1980s. The race would consist of two 275-km (114 laps) races, with each race declaring a separate winner, and each race awarding half points towards the season championship. The starting lineup for the first race was determined during standard time trials. After the completion of the first race, a "halftime" was observed, and the starting lineup for the second race was determined by a random draw.

A mild controversy resulted from the halftime draw for the second race's lineup. It differed from previous "twin" races where the finishing positions for the first race determined the lineup, or the finishing positions were inverted. It was considered unfair by some,<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2011/writers/bruce_martin/06/12/indycar.twin.races/index.html |title=Controversial draw spoils Dario Franchitti's IndyCar win in Texas - Bruce Martin - SI.com |access-date=2012-01-03 |archive-date=2011-08-20 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110820034748/http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2011/writers/bruce_martin/06/12/indycar.twin.races/index.html |url-status=dead }}</ref> and it was magnified when points contenders Will Power and Dario Franchitti drew 3rd and 28th starting positions, respectively. For 2012, the twin-race format was scrapped.

In 2021 Texas hosted a twin-race weekend with two separate points-paying events, named the '''Genesys 300''' and '''XPEL 375''' and held on May 1 and 2 respectively.<ref name="auto"/> Qualifying for both rounds was canceled due to rain, with the starting grid decided by the championship standings entering each race. Álex Palou, competing for Chip Ganassi Racing, was awarded pole position for the Genesys 300 as he was the points leader following the previous round at St. Petersburg. Palou's teammate Scott Dixon, who started ninth, won the first race and took his only victory of the season. Dixon advanced to take the lead in the points standings, and consequently started the XPEL 375 on pole the following day. The second race was won by Arrow McLaren SP's Pato O'Ward, who claimed his first IndyCar Series victory.

The event returned to a single-race format for 2022 onwards, and its distance was extended to 375 miles.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.indycar.com/Schedule/2023/IndyCar-Series/Texas | title=PPG 375 }}</ref>

==Planned CART race== {{Main|Firestone Firehawk 600}} CART scheduled a race at the track for April 29, 2001. Following practice and qualifying, however, the race was cancelled "due to irresolvable concerns over the physical demands placed on the drivers at race speeds."<ref>{{Cite web| url=http://www.motorsport.com/news/article.asp?ID=63078&FS=CHAMPCAR | title=Driver safety concerns postpone Texas race | access-date=2006-10-17 | archive-date=2007-09-30 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070930013234/http://www.motorsport.com/news/article.asp?ID=63078&FS=CHAMPCAR | url-status=dead}}</ref> All but four drivers reported they had experienced vertigo-like symptoms due to lateral g-forces from driving in excess of {{convert|230|mi/h|km/h|abbr=on}} on the steep 24 degree banks.

The Dayton Indy Lights race was completed with two cautions.

==PJ1 usage== Starting in 2019 Texas Motor Speedway began to apply PJ1 TrackBite on the high portion of the banking on the track. This was done for NASCAR, who runs multiple events at the speedway and whose cars benefit from the addition of the substance on the track. For IndyCars however the application of PJ1 has created numerous problems. IndyCar's harder tire compounds struggle to grab onto to the PJ1, which combined with the lower downforce levels of IndyCar's current aerodynamic package has led many drivers to compare driving on the substance to driving on ice.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Boxall-Legge |first1=Jake |title=One-lane Texas 'not ideal' with ice-like surface - Rahal |url=https://www.autosport.com/indycar/news/one-lane-texas-not-ideal-with-ice-like-surface-rahal-6502617/6502617/ |website=Autosport.com |date=4 May 2021 |publisher=Motorsport Network |access-date=13 July 2021}}</ref> Because the drivers avoid the PJ1 coated sections of the banking so called "marbles" from the worn tires are thrown by the cars onto the PJ1 coated surface, exacerbating the problem of low grip on those banks of the track. This in turn makes Texas Motor Speedway a one groove racetrack for the IndyCars and has resulted several accidents in the races run at the speedway since the PJ1 was first applied. IndyCar drivers have become very critical of the track at Texas in recent years and have complained that the PJ1 results in racing that is both uninteresting and unsafe at the same time.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/motorsports/its-worse-indycar-drivers-blame-texas-single-lane-racing-for-2-crashes-saturday/ar-BB1ghrQv|title = 'It's worse': IndyCar drivers blame Texas' single-lane racing for 2 crashes Saturday|website = MSN}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://racereviewonline.net/2021/05/02/how-the-pj1-areas-affected-the-racing-at-texas-this-past-weekend-what-the-drivers-said-and-why-indycar-should-be-applauded/|title = How the PJ1 areas affected the racing at Texas this past weekend, what the drivers said and why INDYCAR should be applauded|date = 3 May 2021}}</ref>

For 2022 IndyCar and Dallara unveiled bargeboards for use at Texas in an attempt to open up the portions of the track coated with PJ1 to the drivers. The bargeboards are expected to add an additional 200 pounds of downforce on top of the UAK18 superspeedway aero kit and will be optional for teams to use during both qualifying and the race.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Pruett |first1=Marshall |title=IndyCar creates downforce increase options at three ovals |url=https://racer.com/2022/01/17/indycar-creates-downforce-increase-options-at-three-ovals/ |website=Racer.com |date=17 January 2022 |publisher=Racer Marketing and Media |access-date=23 January 2022}}</ref> Teams opted not to run the bargeboards in 2022. IndyCar mandated the use of the bargeboards in 2023.
