Tailgating
As they say, everything is bigger in Texas -- including the tailgating. Bruton Smith took his blueprint of Charlotte and ran with it all the way to Texas. The speedway has specific routes for inbound and outbound traffic. Check the track's web site for its visitor parking map.moreSchedule

Track History
Texas Motor Speedway's construction began in 1995. The original configuration called for an unusual dual banking system that had 24 degrees of banking for stock cars and 8 degrees for open-wheel cars. In 1998, Turn 4 at Texas Motor Speedway was reshaped to ease the transition from the turns to the front straightaway.moreRemember To Check Out
