About Indianapolis 500: Miller Lite Carb Day

Indianapolis 500: Miller Lite Carb Day is the annual Friday tradition held each May at Indianapolis Motor Speedway in Speedway, Indiana, leading into the Indianapolis 500 on the Sunday of Memorial Day weekend. Originally known as “Carburetion Day,” it traces back to the early era of the Indianapolis 500 when teams used the day to make final carburetor adjustments. Carburetors are long obsolete in modern IndyCar, but the name — and the tradition — endures as a key part of Indy 500 race week.

Carb Day is a single-day event that blends motorsport and entertainment. The schedule features the final full-field practice for the 33-car Indianapolis 500 field on the 2.5-mile rectangular oval, giving teams a last chance to dial in setups before race day. The Indy 500 Pit Stop Challenge adds high-pressure competition in a head-to-head bracket format where pit crews execute timed service for prize money and bragging rights, and the day finishes with a major infield concert after on-track activity concludes. While no championship points are awarded, the practice session carries real strategic value — it’s the last on-track look before the green flag on Sunday.

Because the final practice includes the full Indy 500 field, Carb Day brings out the series’ marquee drivers and teams. Recent Indy 500 winners have included Josef Newgarden, Marcus Ericsson, Hélio Castroneves, and Alexander Rossi, and top organizations like Team Penske, Chip Ganassi Racing, Andretti Global, and Arrow McLaren are often central to the day’s storylines — especially in the Pit Stop Challenge. With Indianapolis Motor Speedway’s massive scale (approximately 235,000 permanent seats, with total capacity exceeding 300,000 including the infield) and a party-like crowd, it’s one of the most popular single-day gatherings at IMS outside of the race itself. If you’re planning to attend Indianapolis 500: Miller Lite Carb Day, browsing tickets early is the smartest move.
