Sears Point Raceway is a 1.99-mile asphalt road course with 10 turns and varying degrees of banking and elevation changes, as well as variable length straight-aways. This season, the road course has been separated from the adjacent drag strip by a concrete wall and the main pit road has been extended to 43 stalls, eliminating the need for the "Gilligan's Island" temporary pit road across from the main pits.
