Talk:Speedway, Indiana

message: I'm not sure about this edit, but I've left it in for now. Could somebody look into this? I'm seriously no expert in history, especially in terms of cars or city development. --Sid 3050 15:26, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Right you are, being that the Automobile was not successfully built until the 1890's and the Indianapolis Motor Speedway was not built until 1909, the idea that this town was built around its nonexistent namesake, nearly 100 years before it existed, for people with automobiles, that would not yet be sold for another 70 years, is ludicrous. If it is one of the two years you mentioned it is undoubtedly 1920. --MJHankel 18:43, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: not to mention the fact that the city flag and seal say 1926. --MJHankel 18:54, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
