Christie in 1909

This artifact image of J. Walter Christie in his front-wheel-drive Christie racer was derived from a photo first published in the August 10, 1909, Indianapolis News. The original photo supported an article about entries for the first auto races at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway
 
There are numerous references to Christie and his cars elsewhere on First Super Speedway. I suggest you get your exploration started at the following links:
