1902 — 1913, and after
Brief, because the record is: Motorcycle racing's documented Fort Wayne chapter belongs to the fair years at Driving Park, where the track histories record that auto and motorcycle races were frequently held and were a highlight of the annual fairs through September 1913 — the motorcycles sharing the bill, and the one-mile oval, with the new automobiles. After that the two-wheeled record in the sources thins to listings: track guides for Baer Field Speedway's later multi-course years include a motocross course among the layouts on the Winters Road ground, since replaced by the dirt oval built for karts. No board track and no Fort Wayne flat-track series appears in the record reached, and none is claimed.
