The NTT IndyCar Series is the premier open-wheel, open-cockpit racing series in North America. The series offers one of the most diverse and challenging schedules in motorsports, with races held on superspeedway ovals, short ovals, permanent road courses and temporary street circuits such as The Raceway at Belle Isle Park. Chevrolet and Honda are the competing engine manufacturers in the NTT IndyCar Series. Dallara is sole chassis maker developer of the universal aero kit for all cars that premiered in 2018.

The series features such star drivers as five-time and reigning series champion Scott Dixon, Tony Kanaan, James Hinchcliffe, Josef Newgarden, Graham Rahal, Ryan Hunter-Reay, Will Power, Marco Andretti, Takuma Sato and Alexander Rossi.

The IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship (IMSA)

The IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship is North America's premiere sports car endurance racing series. Competitors from across the globe compete for honors at some of the most historic and iconic race tracks in North America. The series features a total of four classes: Daytona Prototype international (DPi), Le Mans Prototype 2 (LMP2), GT Le Mans (GTLM), and GT Daytona (GTD) racing at the same time at most races, driven by many of the world's best road racers. The Chevrolet Sports Car Classic on Belle Isle included the DPi and GTD classes.

The DPi class features the fastest and most technologically advanced cars in North America. DPi cars from manufacturers such as Acura, Cadillac, Mazda and Nissan are specifically designed and engineered for the race track. While unique in appearance, the technology being developed in the DPi category is relevant and directly tied to manufacturers' R&D initiatives.  

The GTD cars are enhanced by technology and utilize the global FIA GT3 technical specifications. The GTD class consists of cars from leading manufacturers such as Acura, Audi, BMW, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Lexus, Mercedes-AMG and Porsche.  

The 12-race 2019 WeatherTech Championship schedule is highlighted by endurance races such as the around-the-clock season-opening Rolex 24 At Daytona, the Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring Presented by Advance Auto Parts and the 10-hour Motul Petit Le Mans at Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta.
