The Firestone Indy 200 was an Indy Racing League IndyCar Series race held at Nashville Superspeedway in Lebanon, Tennessee.

In 2001, it marked the first American open wheel event in the Nashville area. It is currently held as a Saturday night race. The 2007 event was postponed until Sunday after a series of rainshowers at the track. It marked the track's first-ever postponement and was only the second time in IRL history an event had to be postponed due to weather.

Following the 2008 event, Indy Racing League officials decided to end their association with Nashville Superspeedway. The event was removed from the 2009 schedule, and it is not expected to return.
