Notes
- Floyd Davis was the starting driver for the #16 car. On lap 72, Davis came in for a pit stop, and was relieved by Mauri Rose. Rose had started the race in another car and dropped out earlier. Rose went on to stay in the #16 car, and went on to win. Both drivers were credited as "co-winners," similar to what occurred in the 1924 race.
- Sam Hanks crashed his car in practice the day before the race, and withdrew. His position was not filled with an alternate, and he was credited with 33rd place.
- On the morning of the race a fire broke out in the garage area. George Barringer's revolutionary rear-engined car was destroyed. His car was withdrawn, and he was credited with 32nd finishing position.
