Putnam Park Road Course

What Putnam Park Road Course does

Putnam Park Road Course, operated by Putnam Park Corporation (Indiana, founded 1991 by Richard L. Diasio), runs a single physical motorsport facility on 202 rolling acres approximately 35 miles west of Indianapolis. The facility centers on a 1.78-mile, 10-turn road course purpose-designed for club racers, featuring smooth surfaces, multiple course configurations, and safety-focused runoff areas; the site also includes 20 private garage bays (17 ft x 20 ft each) with electrical and compressed air, an 800 ft x 100 ft gravel trailer parking area, and on-site Sunoco 104 Unleaded and 110 Leaded race fuel. The company has 5 employees, and its core technology is physical infrastructure rather than software; there is no app, API, or documented AI capability. Its presence is otherwise limited to a website (putnampark.com) and a Facebook page.

The business is event-driven and operates year-round (weather permitting). Revenue is generated through four transactional and recurring streams: track rental and event fees (including team testing, HPDE sessions, and group events), The Club at Putnam Park annual membership program (offering 120+ scheduled Member Days plus on-demand days from December to February with professional instructors), garage bay rental, and on-site fuel sales. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; off-season reduced rates and multi-day test discounts apply. Go-to-market is direct via the corporate office combined with channel partners: PCA chapters (Central Indiana and Kentucky regions), SCCA (Indy Region), BMW CCA (Hoosier Chapter), Indianapolis Corvette Club, plus event organizers such as Sportbike Track Time, Xtreme Xperience, 10/10ths Motorsports, and The Winning Formula. The facility serves amateur club racers, motorcycle enthusiasts, corporate/racing team testers, and consumers seeking exotic-car driving experiences, with the founding five clubs having returned annually since opening.
