Race results

Note:
Billy Pearce was awarded the victory in the G & J Trophy race of July 1, 1910, after the original first and second place finishers were disqualified. The disqualifications took place a few weeks after the race was run, because Burman's and Chevrolet's Marquette-Buick cars did not meet the rules' definition of a "stock car." Burman's winning time would have been 0:40:03.08, for a speed of 74.904 mph.
