- The 1946 AAA Championship Car season was the first season of American Championship car racing following World War II. After four years without racing in the United States, the AAA Contest Board was initially concerned about having enough races, enough entrants, and suitable equipment, for a 1946 season. Even the Indianapolis 500 was in doubt, as the Indianapolis Motor Speedway was neglected during the war. Track owner Eddie Rickenbacker sold the track to Tony Hulman in November 1945, by which point it had fallen into a terrible state of disrepair. As the season progressed, it proved to be a success, and marked a successful return of the National Championship. Hulman's swift and herculean effort to renovate Indianapolis allowed for the 1946 Indianapolis 500 to be run as scheduled on May 30, and it was won by George Robson. George Robson and George Barringer were killed at Atlanta in the race. Al Putnam died at the Indiana State Fairgrounds Speedway in qualifying. (en)
- Die AAA-Saison 1946 war die 25. Meisterschaftssaison im US-amerikanischen Formelsport. Sie begann am 14. April in Williams Grove und endete am 10. November in Richmond. sicherte sich den Titel. Die AAA veranstaltete in diesem Jahr sechs Rennen, die nach ihren eigenen Regeln Teil der Meisterschaft sein durften. Bedingung war das ein Rennen mindestens 100 Meilen lang und eine Rennstrecke mindestens eine Meile lang sein musste. Weil die AAA nicht damit rechnete, dass es nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg dafür genug Teilnehmer gäbe, waren zusätzlich 71 Big-Car-Rennen teil der Meisterschaft. Die Saison bestand damit aus 77 Rennen. Es gab jedoch Zweifel ob nur die sechs Champ-Car-Rennen Teil der Meisterschaft waren oder alle 77 Rennen. Nach ihrem jährlichen Treffen im Dezember 1946 gab die AAA bekannt, dass die Big-Car-Rennen im folgenden Jahr nicht mehr Teil der Meisterschaft sein werden. Außerdem wurde ein Bulletin herausgegeben in dem die Meisterschaft nach allen 77 Rennen berechnet wurde. Horn gewann jedoch die Wertung sowohl nach sechs als auch nach 77 Rennen. Laut IndyCar sind nur die sechs Champ-Car-Rennen teil der Meisterschaft gewesen. (de)
