With less than five months before the historic 0.625-mile short track will host upwards of 30,000 fans and its first NASCAR race since 1996, Speedway Motorsports’s multi-million-dollar process of transforming and updating the track is well underway.
The entire infield has been cleared except for two historic buildings and will be paved to house garages for the NASCAR Truck and Cup series. The lone access to the infield – a crossover gate on the backstretch – has been updated and expanded.
