Keep Calm and Think Racing Aluminum Sign

Auto racing (also known as car racing, motor racing, or automobile racing) is a motorsport involving the racing of automobiles for competition. Auto racing has existed since the invention of the automobile. Races of various sorts were organised, with the first recorded as early as 1867. Many of the earliest events were effectively reliability trials, aimed at proving these new machines were a practical mode of transport, but soon became an important way for competing makers to demonstrate their machines. By the 1930s, specialist racing cars had developed. There are now numerous different categories, each with different rules and regulations. The first organized contest was on April 28, 1887, by the Paris publication: Le Vélocipède. It ran 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) from Neuilly Bridge to the Bois de Boulogne. In 1894, the Parisian magazine Le Petit Journal organized what is considered to be the world's first motoring competition, from Paris to Rouen. One hundred and two competitors participated to the race. The first American automobile race is generally held to be the Thanksgiving Day Chicago Times-Herald race of November 1895. Press coverage of the event first aroused significant American interest in the automobile.
