Auto Race (オートレース Ōto Rēsu) is a Japanese version of motorcycle speedway but combines gambling added into it and is held on an asphalt course throughout Asia. It is regulated by the JKA Foundation.A typical Auto Race bike is 599㏄. Autorace is predominantly a gambling sport. The first ever meeting was held at Funabashi in 1950 but the more traditional speedway and flat track dirt surfaces were banned by the government in the 1960s because they were considered too dangerous.
