Track Trivia:
1 Mile of Grandstands for 150,000 people. This track is huge and because of it's size and high banking, it's also a restrictor plate race.
Aero, aero, aero. That's the big thing here. Get your car fast but neutral and then tuck in behind someone to go fast and save fuel. Tires are no big deal here but gas is, especially since NASCAR went to a 13 gallon tank.
Where is the trouble? The back stretch can go four or five wide and is fun to watch. But Turn 2 is sharp and there can be some large accidents here too.
