Track Information
In the mid 1950's, the Quarter Midget Club was formed in Indianapolis, Indiana. The club raced at the Westlake facility for several years, until the State commissioned the land where the track was located for construction of I-465. This move forced the club to relocate racing to Eagledale Plaza, where the club raced for several more years.
During that time land was found at the Plainfield Park and a new track was built. The club raced for some time in Plainfield until noise concerns halted racing.
It was then that Marvin Zink, a member at the time, donated land on the near eastside to build yet another track. Then, after Mr. Zink's passing in the early 1990's, Indianapolis Motor Speedway mogul Tony George recognized the club needed a permanent home, and commissioned the Speedway to construct the famed Mini-Indy Quarter Midget track at the Indiana State Fairgrounds.
The club was re-named Central Indiana Quarter Midget Association (CIQMA), and has been racing at what is considered one of the best Quarter Midget racing facilities in the United States ever since. We are volunteer organization, which means all of our members are required to volunteer time and talents each race day to ensure our events are fair, competitive, fun- and most of all- safe.
