The 1910 AAA Championship Car season consisted of 19 races, beginning in Atlanta, Georgia on May 5 and concluding in Long Island, New York on October 1. AAA did not award points towards a National Championship during the 1910 season, and did not declare a National Champion.[1]

The de facto National Champion as polled by the American automobile journal Motor Age, was Ray Harroun. Points were not awarded by the AAA Contest Board during the 1910 season. Harroun was named the champion by Chris G. Sinsabaugh, an editor at Motor Age, based upon merit and on track performance. A points table was created retroactively in 1927. At a later point, it was recognized by historians that these championship results should be considered unofficial.
