Summary
Manfred Jantke, former race director and press officer at Porsche, said very aptly: "An event not to be missed!". And so, despite dark gray rain clouds on the horizon, almost 5,000 spectators showed up and enjoyed the summer evening with a large-volume engine sound. Normally, racing bike events are held at the Oerlikon open track, but once a year, selected racing cars are invited for demonstration rides between bike races.

Manfred Jantke, former race director and press officer at Porsche, said very aptly: "An event not to be missed!". And so, despite dark gray rain clouds on the horizon, almost 5,000 spectators showed up and enjoyed the summer evening with a large-volume engine sound. Normally, racing bike events are held at the Oerlikon open track, but once a year, selected racing cars are invited for demonstration rides between bike races. As a treat, Indianapolis racing cars, the so-called Indy cars, were at the start again this year! Oerlikon and Indianapolis in comparison The comparison between the Oerlikon racetrack and the legendary Indianapolis oval is interesting: while Oerlikon's two 180-degree banked turns with an incline of 44.5 degrees and a track length of 333.3 meters are primarily aimed at racing bikes with a speed of 60 km/h, the Indianapolis Speedway's approximately 4,000-meter-long oval with four banked turns inclined at just over nine degrees, each of which is around 122 meters long, allows speeds of well over 350 km/h.
