Next time you visit the Museum, test yourself on the simulators!
Located in the Scott and Sandi Borchetta Qualifying Zone, six SimCraft simulators, including an ADA-accessible model, bring the thrill of being a race car driver to life.

70 years ago, in 1956, the IMS Museum was born at the corner of 16th Street and Georgetown Road in the first IMS administrative building. Take a look back in time at these photos from the '50s and '60sβyou'll notice many of the cars and artifacts are still on display now.

The interactive section where you can test your pit crew, strategy, and driving skills was the most fun I think I've ever had at a museum (and yes I did change the tire faster than kidlet)
