It occurs when the vehicles racing are cornering at their limit of <a href="/wiki/Aerodynamic_drag" class="mw-redirect" title="Aerodynamic drag">aerodynamic drag</a>, but within their limit of <a href="/wiki/Traction_(engineering)" class="mw-redirect" title="Traction (engineering)">traction</a>. This allows drivers to race around the track constantly at <a href="/wiki/Wide_open_throttle" title="Wide open throttle">wide open throttle</a>. Since the vehicles are within their limit of traction, <a href="/wiki/Drafting_(racing)" class="mw-redirect" title="Drafting (racing)">drafting</a> through corners will not hinder a vehicle's performance. As cars running together are faster than cars running individually, all cars in the field will draft each other simultaneously in one large pack. In <a href="/wiki/Stock_car_racing" title="Stock car racing">stock car racing</a> this is often referred to as "<a href="/wiki/Restrictor_plate_racing" class="mw-redirect" title="Restrictor plate racing">restrictor plate racing</a>" because <a href="/wiki/NASCAR" title="NASCAR">NASCAR</a> mandates that each car on its two longest high-banked ovals, <a href="/wiki/Talladega_Superspeedway" title="Talladega Superspeedway">Talladega</a> and <a href="/wiki/Daytona_International_Speedway" title="Daytona International Speedway">Daytona</a>, use an <a href="/wiki/Air_restrictor" class="mw-redirect" title="Air restrictor">air restrictor</a> to reduce <a href="/wiki/Horsepower" title="Horsepower">horsepower</a>. </p><p>The results of pack racing may vary. As drivers are forced to race in a confined space, <a href="/wiki/Overtaking" title="Overtaking">overtaking</a> is very common as vehicles may travel two and three abreast. This forces drivers to use strong mental discipline in negotiating traffic. There are drawbacks, however. Should an accident occur at the front of the pack, the results could block the track in a short amount of time. This leaves drivers at the back of the pack with little time to react and little room to maneuver. The results are often catastrophic as numerous cars may be destroyed in a single accident. This type of accident is often called "<a href="/wiki/The_Big_One_(NASCAR)" class="mw-redirect" title="The Big One (NASCAR)">The Big One</a>".<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Comparison_with_road_racing">Comparison with road racing</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Oval_track_racing&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Comparison with road racing"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Oval track racing requires different tactics than road racing. While the driver does not have to shift gears nearly as frequently, brake as heavily or as often, or deal with turns of various radii in both directions as in road racing, drivers are still challenged by negotiating the track. Where there is generally one preferred line around a road course, there are many different lines that can work on an oval track. The preferred line depends on many factors including track conditions, car set-up, and traffic. The oval track driver must choose which line to use each time they approach a corner. On a short track in a 25-lap feature race, a driver might not run any two laps with the same line. Both types of racing place physical demands on the driver. A driver in an <a href="/wiki/IndyCar_Series" title="IndyCar Series">IndyCar</a> race at <a href="/wiki/Richmond_International_Raceway" class="mw-redirect" title="Richmond International Raceway">Richmond International Raceway</a> may be subject to as many lateral <a href="/wiki/G-force" title="G-force">g-forces</a> (albeit in only one direction) as a <a href="/wiki/Formula_One" title="Formula One">Formula One</a> driver at <a href="/wiki/Silverstone_Circuit" title="Silverstone Circuit">Silverstone</a>. </p><p>Weather also plays a different role in each discipline. Road racing offers a variety of fast and slow corners that allow the use of <a href="/wiki/Rain_tire" class="mw-redirect" title="Rain tire">rain tires</a>. Paved oval tracks generally do not run with a wet track surface. Dirt ovals will sometimes support a light rain. Some tracks (e.g., Evergreen Speedway in Monroe, WA) have "rain or shine" rules requiring races to be run in the rain. </p><p>Safety has also been a point of difference between the two. While a road course usually has abundant <a href="/wiki/Run-off_area" title="Run-off area">run-off areas</a>, gravel traps, and tire barriers, oval tracks usually have a concrete retaining wall separating the track from the fans. Innovations have been made to change this, however. The <a href="/wiki/SAFER_barrier" title="SAFER barrier">SAFER barrier</a> was created to provide a less dangerous alternative to a traditional concrete wall. The barrier can be retrofitted onto an existing wall or may take the place of a concrete wall completely. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Track_classification">Track classification</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Oval_track_racing&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Track classification"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Oval tracks are classified based upon their size, surface, banking, and shape. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="By_size">By size</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Oval_track_racing&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: By size"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Their size can range from only a few hundred feet to over two and a half miles.

Drivers seeking careers in oval track racing generally serve their apprenticeship on short tracks before moving up to series which compete on larger tracks. Due to their short length and fast action, these tracks are often nicknamed "<a href="/wiki/Bullring" title="Bullring">bullrings</a>". Professional-level NASCAR races on short tracks usually use a 500-lap or 400-lap distance. Short tracks in many cases have lights installed and routinely host night races. The short ovals still form the backbone of NASCAR in the feeder series. Three race tracks of this type are also represented in the Cup: Bristol, Martinsville and Richmond. Tracks with potential for future cup races are the Iowa Speedway built in 2006, the Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway used until 1984 in the Cup, and the Memphis Motorsports Park, which had races of the Busch Series back then until the 2000s. The <a href="/wiki/Auto_Club_Speedway" title="Auto Club Speedway">Auto Club Speedway</a> is to be converted from a 2-mile super speedway to a 1/2 mile short track in 2024. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Mile_oval">Mile oval</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Oval_track_racing&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Mile oval"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Synonymous with the name, a 1-mile (1.61 km) oval is a popular and common length for oval track racing. The exact measurements, however, can vary by as much as a tenth of a mile and still fall into this category. Most mile ovals are relatively flat-banked, with <a href="/wiki/Dover_International_Speedway" class="mw-redirect" title="Dover International Speedway">Dover</a> being a notable exception. </p><p>Many 1-mile dirt ovals were used by stock cars or champ cars before race tracks with dirt surfaces were removed from the racing calendar in the early 1970s. Many of these racetracks got the nickname "Fairgrounds” — for example <a href="/wiki/Arizona_State_Fairgrounds" title="Arizona State Fairgrounds">Arizona State Fairgrounds</a>, <a href="/wiki/California_State_Fairgrounds" class="mw-redirect" title="California State Fairgrounds">California State Fairgrounds</a> and <a href="/wiki/Michigan_State_Fairgrounds_Speedway" title="Michigan State Fairgrounds Speedway">Michigan State Fairgrounds Speedway</a>. The origin of these racetracks was in <a href="/wiki/Harness_racing" title="Harness racing">harness racing</a>, which commonly used 1-mile tracks. Also, the oldest oval race track, the <a href="/wiki/Milwaukee_Mile" title="Milwaukee Mile">Milwaukee Mile</a> was originally a race track for <a href="/wiki/Horse_racing" title="Horse racing">horse racing</a>. </p><p>In NASCAR, 1-mile oval tracks are among the intermediate tracks. IndyCar rates these tracks as short ovals, since IndyCar does not usually run on ovals shorter than 3/4-mile. The 1-mile ovals have lost a great deal of their former importance for oval racing. Most of the racetracks abandoned by NASCAR or IndyCar in the 2000s were of this type. These include the <a href="/wiki/Chicago_Motor_Speedway" title="Chicago Motor Speedway">Chicago Motor Speedway</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Walt_Disney_World_Speedway" title="Walt Disney World Speedway">Walt Disney World Speedway</a>, which were built during the 1990s construction boom but used for only four years. The historic <a href="/wiki/Nazareth_Speedway" title="Nazareth Speedway">Nazareth Speedway</a>, which was paved in 1986, was completely abandoned after the 2004 season.

However, these racetracks have not been used by nationally important motorsports events for years. There are only three 1-mile tracks left on the NASCAR racing calendar: Phoenix, Loudon, and Dover. IndyCar only returned to 1-mile oval racing with the addition of the Milwaukee Mile in 2024 after 9 years of it being off the schedule.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Intermediate">Intermediate</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Oval_track_racing&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Intermediate"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Nascarvegas03.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4a/Nascarvegas03.jpg/220px-Nascarvegas03.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4a/Nascarvegas03.jpg/330px-Nascarvegas03.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4a/Nascarvegas03.jpg/440px-Nascarvegas03.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1024" data-file-height="768" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Las_Vegas_Motor_Speedway" title="Las Vegas Motor Speedway">Las Vegas Motor Speedway</a> (2005)</figcaption></figure> <p>Also referred to with the general term of "speedway", these courses are 1 to 2 miles (1.6 to 3.2 km) in length, but the term is particularly reserved for 1.5-mile (2.4 km) tracks. At the beginning of the history of NASCAR and IndyCar, this oval size was not very common. Until 1990, there were only five examples. Two of these, the Marchbanks Speedway (1.4 miles) and the Trenton Speedway (1.5 miles), were demolished in the 1970s and 1980s, and only three—Charlotte Motor Speedway, Atlanta Motor Speedway and Darlington Raceway—have survived to this day. All other ovals of this type were built after 1994. During the race track construction boom of the late 1990s, these tracks began to be labeled with the rather derogatory term "cookie cutter" tracks, as their differences were perceived to be minimal. </p><p>In 1992, <a href="/wiki/Charlotte_Motor_Speedway" title="Charlotte Motor Speedway">Charlotte</a> became the first intermediate track to install lights and allow for night racing. It is now commonplace for these types of tracks to host night races. Intermediate tracks usually have moderate to steep banking. Almost all modern race tracks that are still used in NASCAR and IndyCar today are of this type. Since their size allows them to compromise high speeds with sightlines, especially tri- and quad-ovals of 1.5-mile length have become commonplace in major racing series that use oval tracks. </p><p>While intermediate speedways were designed primarily with stock cars in mind, they were also believed to be suited to host <a href="/wiki/American_open-wheel_car_racing" title="American open-wheel car racing">Indy cars</a> as well. In the early years of the <a href="/wiki/IndyCar" title="IndyCar">Indy Racing League</a>, the series visited several intermediate tracks. The higher-downforce, normally aspirated IRL-type cars proved to be competitive at several of the tracks. The <a href="/wiki/Champ_Car" class="mw-redirect" title="Champ Car">CART</a> series however, mostly stayed away as the faster, more powerful Champ Cars were generally thought to be too fast for this type of circuit. This became evident at the 2001 <a href="/wiki/Firestone_Firehawk_600" title="Firestone Firehawk 600">Firestone Firehawk 600</a>, when drivers experienced vertigo-like symptoms, and the race was cancelled for safety reasons. As of 2020, the <a href="/wiki/IndyCar_Series" title="IndyCar Series">IndyCar Series</a> has only one race remaining at a high-banked intermediate track (<a href="/wiki/Genesys_600" class="mw-redirect" title="Genesys 600">Texas</a>). These tracks began to be removed from the Indy car schedule in the late-2000s and early-2010s due to low crowds and serious crashes, including the fatal accident involving Dan Wheldon at <a href="/wiki/2011_IZOD_IndyCar_World_Championship" title="2011 IZOD IndyCar World Championship">Las Vegas</a> in 2011. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Superspeedway">Superspeedway</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Oval_track_racing&action=edit&section=9" title="Edit section: Superspeedway"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Originally a superspeedway was an oval race track with a length of one mile or more.

Pursuant to its name, the track shape resembles a rectangle, with two long straights and two short straights, connected by four separate turns. The primary characteristic of a rounded-off rectangle that differentiates it from a traditional oval shape, is the presence of two "short chutes", one between turns one and two, and one between turns three and four. While most traditional ovals have two continuous 180° radii (advertised as four 90° turns), this shape actually has four distinct 90° curves. When it was first constructed, the Homestead-Miami Speedway was designed to this layout and touted as a "mini-Indy." However, at only 1.5 miles (one mile shorter than Indy), the track proved to be uncompetitive, owing largely to the sharp corners, and was soon reconfigured as a traditional oval. Indianapolis remains as the only major track to this specification. Tracks of this shape have been avoided due to grandstand sight line issues, slow corners, and dangerous impact angles. However, numerous private manufacturers' test tracks use this type of layout. The only major short track with a rectangular layout has the shape of a rounded-off square with four nearly identical straights and turns.</td> <td><figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:FlemingtonSpeedwayMap.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4f/FlemingtonSpeedwayMap.svg/100px-FlemingtonSpeedwayMap.svg.png" decoding="async" width="100" height="113" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4f/FlemingtonSpeedwayMap.svg/150px-FlemingtonSpeedwayMap.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4f/FlemingtonSpeedwayMap.svg/200px-FlemingtonSpeedwayMap.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="520" data-file-height="590" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Flemington_Speedway" title="Flemington Speedway">Flemington Speedway</a>, a square</figcaption></figure></td> <td>-</td> <td><figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Homestead_Miami_Speedway_Original_Layout.png" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a4/Homestead_Miami_Speedway_Original_Layout.png/100px-Homestead_Miami_Speedway_Original_Layout.png" decoding="async" width="100" height="52" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a4/Homestead_Miami_Speedway_Original_Layout.png/150px-Homestead_Miami_Speedway_Original_Layout.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a4/Homestead_Miami_Speedway_Original_Layout.png/200px-Homestead_Miami_Speedway_Original_Layout.png 2x" data-file-width="325" data-file-height="169" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Homestead%E2%80%93Miami_Speedway" title="Homestead–Miami Speedway">Homestead Miami Speedway</a> original design</figcaption></figure></td> <td><figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Indianapolis_Oval.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6e/Indianapolis_Oval.svg/100px-Indianapolis_Oval.svg.png" decoding="async" width="100" height="51" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6e/Indianapolis_Oval.svg/150px-Indianapolis_Oval.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6e/Indianapolis_Oval.svg/200px-Indianapolis_Oval.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="979" data-file-height="499" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Indianapolis_Motor_Speedway" title="Indianapolis Motor Speedway">Indianapolis Motor Speedway</a></figcaption></figure> </td></tr> <tr> <td>Rounded-off trapezoid</td> <td>A very rare layout is a trapezoid oval course.

There are some triangular oval tracks in Canada, Germany and Mexico.</td> <td><figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Sanair_Super_Speedway_map.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/27/Sanair_Super_Speedway_map.svg/100px-Sanair_Super_Speedway_map.svg.png" decoding="async" width="100" height="76" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/27/Sanair_Super_Speedway_map.svg/150px-Sanair_Super_Speedway_map.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/27/Sanair_Super_Speedway_map.svg/200px-Sanair_Super_Speedway_map.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="375" data-file-height="286" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Sanair_Super_Speedway" title="Sanair Super Speedway">Sanair Super Speedway</a>, an equilateral triangle</figcaption></figure></td> <td>-</td> <td><figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Marchbanks_Speedway_(Hanford_Motor_Speedway)_map.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/45/Marchbanks_Speedway_%28Hanford_Motor_Speedway%29_map.svg/75px-Marchbanks_Speedway_%28Hanford_Motor_Speedway%29_map.svg.png" decoding="async" width="75" height="96" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/45/Marchbanks_Speedway_%28Hanford_Motor_Speedway%29_map.svg/113px-Marchbanks_Speedway_%28Hanford_Motor_Speedway%29_map.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/45/Marchbanks_Speedway_%28Hanford_Motor_Speedway%29_map.svg/150px-Marchbanks_Speedway_%28Hanford_Motor_Speedway%29_map.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="768" data-file-height="981" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Marchbanks_Speedway" title="Marchbanks Speedway">Marchbanks Speedway</a></figcaption></figure></td> <td><figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Pocono_Raceway.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3d/Pocono_Raceway.svg/100px-Pocono_Raceway.svg.png" decoding="async" width="100" height="64" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3d/Pocono_Raceway.svg/150px-Pocono_Raceway.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3d/Pocono_Raceway.svg/200px-Pocono_Raceway.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="512" data-file-height="327" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Pocono_Raceway" title="Pocono Raceway">Pocono Raceway</a></figcaption></figure> </td></tr> </tbody></table><p> Additional prominent examples:</p><ul class="gallery mw-gallery-traditional"> <li class="gallerybox" style="width: 155px"> <div class="thumb" style="width: 150px;

The use of the tri-oval shape for automobile racing was conceived by <a href="/wiki/Bill_France,_Sr." class="mw-redirect" title="Bill France, Sr.">Bill France, Sr.</a> during the planning for Daytona. The triangular layout allowed fans in the grandstands an angular perspective of the cars coming towards and moving away from their vantage point. Traditional ovals (such as <a href="/wiki/Indianapolis_Motor_Speedway" title="Indianapolis Motor Speedway">Indianapolis</a>) offered only limited linear views of the course, and required fans to look back and forth much like a tennis match. The tri-oval shape prevents fans from having to "lean" to see oncoming cars, and creates more forward sight lines. The modern tri-ovals were often called as <i>cookie cutters</i> because of their (nearly) identical shape and identical kind of races. </p> <table class="wikitable"> <tbody><tr> <th rowspan="2" width="10%">Shape</th> <th rowspan="2" width="50%">Description</th> <th width="40%" colspan="4">Examples </th></tr> <tr> <th>Short Track</th> <th>Mile Oval</th> <th>Intermediate</th> <th>Superspeedway </th></tr> <tr> <td>Tri-oval</td> <td>A tri-oval resembles an isosceles triangle with rounded-off corners. The circuits typically have a straight backstretch, while the main straightaway where the pit area and most grandstands are located, has a "tri-oval" curve (sometimes characterized as a fifth curve) that makes the mainstretch skewed. Tri-ovals have become preferable to track builders as they offer superior sightlines. Generally on tri-ovals the start-finish line is located on the apex of the tri-oval curve. Two exceptions are Talladega and Walt Disney World Speedway, where the start-finish line are located on the straight between the curve and turn one.</td> <td>-</td> <td><figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Walt_Disney_World_Speedway_diagram.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b5/Walt_Disney_World_Speedway_diagram.svg/100px-Walt_Disney_World_Speedway_diagram.svg.png" decoding="async" width="100" height="75" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b5/Walt_Disney_World_Speedway_diagram.svg/150px-Walt_Disney_World_Speedway_diagram.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b5/Walt_Disney_World_Speedway_diagram.svg/200px-Walt_Disney_World_Speedway_diagram.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="1024" data-file-height="768" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Walt_Disney_World_Speedway" title="Walt Disney World Speedway">Walt Disney World Speedway</a></figcaption></figure></td> <td><figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Las_Vegas_Motor_Speedway_diagram.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/df/Las_Vegas_Motor_Speedway_diagram.svg/100px-Las_Vegas_Motor_Speedway_diagram.svg.png" decoding="async" width="100" height="75" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/df/Las_Vegas_Motor_Speedway_diagram.svg/150px-Las_Vegas_Motor_Speedway_diagram.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/df/Las_Vegas_Motor_Speedway_diagram.svg/200px-Las_Vegas_Motor_Speedway_diagram.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="1024" data-file-height="768" /></a><figcaption>The <a href="/wiki/Las_Vegas_Motor_Speedway" title="Las Vegas Motor Speedway">Las Vegas Motor Speedway</a></figcaption></figure></td> <td><figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Daytona_International_Speedway_2024.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a0/Daytona_International_Speedway_2024.svg/100px-Daytona_International_Speedway_2024.svg.png" decoding="async" width="100" height="65" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a0/Daytona_International_Speedway_2024.svg/150px-Daytona_International_Speedway_2024.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a0/Daytona_International_Speedway_2024.svg/200px-Daytona_International_Speedway_2024.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="512" data-file-height="334" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Daytona_International_Speedway" title="Daytona International Speedway">Daytona International Speedway</a></figcaption></figure> </td></tr> <tr> <td>Quad-oval</td> <td>A tri-oval with a "double dogleg" is often called a "quad-oval". A quad-oval is very similar to a tri-oval in sightlines and layout. One specific feature is that the start-finish line segment actually falls on a straight section, rather than along a curve. The shape has become a signature for <a href="/wiki/Speedway_Motorsports" title="Speedway Motorsports">Speedway Motorsports</a>, which owns all major quad-ovals in the United States. The <a href="/wiki/Calder_Park_Thunderdome" class="mw-redirect" title="Calder Park Thunderdome">Calder Park Thunderdome</a> in <a href="/wiki/Melbourne" title="Melbourne">Melbourne</a>, Australia, is also an example of a quad-oval speedway, though since its opening in 1987 it has generally been referred to as a tri-oval. The Rockingham Speedway is a special case because it can be interpreted as a D-oval as well as a tri-oval or quad-oval. The front line is laid out as an asymmetrical curve, which contains two faint kinks with start-finish-line is next to second kink.</td> <td><figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Birmingham_Interational_Raceway.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/ff/Birmingham_Interational_Raceway.svg/50px-Birmingham_Interational_Raceway.svg.png" decoding="async" width="50" height="88" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/ff/Birmingham_Interational_Raceway.svg/75px-Birmingham_Interational_Raceway.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/ff/Birmingham_Interational_Raceway.svg/100px-Birmingham_Interational_Raceway.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="425" data-file-height="750" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Birmingham_International_Raceway" title="Birmingham International Raceway">Birmingham International Raceway</a></figcaption></figure></td> <td><figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Rockingham_Speedway.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/db/Rockingham_Speedway.svg/100px-Rockingham_Speedway.svg.png" decoding="async" width="100" height="61" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/db/Rockingham_Speedway.svg/150px-Rockingham_Speedway.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/db/Rockingham_Speedway.svg/200px-Rockingham_Speedway.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="512" data-file-height="314" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Rockingham_Speedway" title="Rockingham Speedway">Rockingham Speedway</a></figcaption></figure></td> <td><figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Charlotte_Motor_Speedway_diagram.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ac/Charlotte_Motor_Speedway_diagram.svg/100px-Charlotte_Motor_Speedway_diagram.svg.png" decoding="async" width="100" height="75" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ac/Charlotte_Motor_Speedway_diagram.svg/150px-Charlotte_Motor_Speedway_diagram.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ac/Charlotte_Motor_Speedway_diagram.svg/200px-Charlotte_Motor_Speedway_diagram.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="1024" data-file-height="768" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Charlotte_Motor_Speedway" title="Charlotte Motor Speedway">Charlotte Motor Speedway</a></figcaption></figure></td> <td>- </td></tr> <tr> <td>D-shaped oval</td> <td>A variation of tri-oval is the "D-shaped oval". Similar to a tri-oval, a D-shaped oval has a straight backstretch, but a long, sweeping frontstretch, giving the circuit a layout resembling the letter <i>D</i>. The shape originated with a pair of sister tracks built in the 1960s: Michigan International Speedway and Texas World Speedway. Initially, this design has been used only for superspeedways. But there are now some short tracks with this shape, too. For example, the Richmond Raceway was rebuilt in 1986 from a 0.542 mi stadium oval to an 0.750 mi D-shaped oval. The most famous short track, which was explicitly designed as a D-oval from the scratch, was the Iowa Speedway, which opened in 2006.</td> <td><figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Iowa_Speedway_2024.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9d/Iowa_Speedway_2024.svg/100px-Iowa_Speedway_2024.svg.png" decoding="async" width="100" height="71" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9d/Iowa_Speedway_2024.svg/150px-Iowa_Speedway_2024.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9d/Iowa_Speedway_2024.svg/200px-Iowa_Speedway_2024.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="512" data-file-height="364" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Iowa_Speedway" title="Iowa Speedway">Iowa Speedway</a></figcaption></figure></td> <td><figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Pikes_Peak_International_Raceway.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/Pikes_Peak_International_Raceway.svg/100px-Pikes_Peak_International_Raceway.svg.png" decoding="async" width="100" height="59" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/Pikes_Peak_International_Raceway.svg/150px-Pikes_Peak_International_Raceway.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/af/Pikes_Peak_International_Raceway.svg/200px-Pikes_Peak_International_Raceway.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="512" data-file-height="300" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Pikes_Peak_International_Raceway" title="Pikes Peak International Raceway">Pikes Peak International Raceway</a></figcaption></figure></td> <td>-</td> <td><br /><figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Michigan_International_Speedway_track_map.png" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/87/Michigan_International_Speedway_track_map.png/100px-Michigan_International_Speedway_track_map.png" decoding="async" width="100" height="65" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/87/Michigan_International_Speedway_track_map.png/150px-Michigan_International_Speedway_track_map.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/87/Michigan_International_Speedway_track_map.png/200px-Michigan_International_Speedway_track_map.png 2x" data-file-width="659" data-file-height="428" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Michigan_International_Speedway" title="Michigan International Speedway">Michigan International Speedway</a></figcaption></figure> </td></tr> </tbody></table><p> Additional prominent examples:</p><ul class="gallery mw-gallery-traditional"> <li class="gallerybox" style="width: 155px"> <div class="thumb" style="width: 150px;

This type of course makes for a multi-purpose track, and allows the facility to be used for both oval and road racing. A typical combined road course consists of the oval portion of the track, using the same start/finish line, and same pit area, but a mid-course diversion to a winding road circuit in the infield (and/or outfield). At some point, the circuit leads back to the main oval, and completes the rest of the lap. On some of the faster ovals, a <a href="/wiki/Chicane" title="Chicane">chicane</a> is present on long back-straights, to keep speeds down, and create additional braking/passing zones. Some more complex facilities feature a stand-alone road course layout(s) in the infield not directly linked to the oval layout, or otherwise using only a short portion of the oval. </p><p>Combined road courses combine the high speed characteristics of ovals with the technical precision of <a href="/wiki/Road_racing" title="Road racing">road courses</a>. It allows road racing disciplines the unique experience of being held in the stadium style atmosphere of an oval superspeedway. Numerous combined road courses saw widespread use with sports cars in the 1970s and early 1980s. However, their use at the professional level has since diminished considerably, since most layouts lacked the desirable topography and competitive challenges of natural road courses. In addition, most combined road course circuits offer poor sightlines for fans sitting in the grandstands. Oftentimes the challenging infield portion is obscured or not visible at all from the grandstands that line the circumference of the oval track, so many fans choose to view from the ground level inside the infield – leaving the grandstands mostly empty and unsightly. </p><p>Many combined road course layouts have been abandoned. However, some have enjoyed extended life as venues for testing, driving schools, and <a href="/wiki/Sports_Car_Club_of_America" title="Sports Car Club of America">amateur race meets</a>. Since 1962, the most famous race continuously held on a combined road course has been the <a href="/wiki/24_Hours_of_Daytona" title="24 Hours of Daytona">24 Hours of Daytona</a>. Since 2018, <a href="/wiki/NASCAR" title="NASCAR">NASCAR</a> has held the <a href="/wiki/Bank_of_America_Roval_400" title="Bank of America Roval 400">Bank of America Roval 400</a> on a combined course at <a href="/wiki/Charlotte_Motor_Speedway" title="Charlotte Motor Speedway">Charlotte</a>. </p><p>In some rare examples, the combined road course layout is run in the opposite direction to the oval circuit. For instance, at <a href="/wiki/Indianapolis_Motor_Speedway" title="Indianapolis Motor Speedway">Indianapolis</a> the oval is run counter-clockwise, but the combined road course used during the <a href="/wiki/IndyCar_Series" title="IndyCar Series">IndyCar Series</a> <a href="/wiki/Grand_Prix_of_Indianapolis" title="Grand Prix of Indianapolis">Grand Prix of Indianapolis</a> is run clockwise. However the <a href="/wiki/Indianapolis_motorcycle_Grand_Prix" title="Indianapolis motorcycle Grand Prix">MotoGP</a> races were run counter-clockwise, with some reconfigured corners to fix corner apex problems. <a href="/wiki/Michigan_International_Speedway" title="Michigan International Speedway">Michigan</a> was also an example of a clockwise combined road course. Another example is the <a href="/wiki/Adelaide_International_Raceway" title="Adelaide International Raceway">Adelaide International Raceway</a> in <a href="/wiki/Australia" title="Australia">Australia</a> which combines a 2.41 km (1.50 mi) road course with an 0.805 km (0.500 mi) speedway bowl. The Bowl forms a permanent part of the road course and also runs clockwise. At many tracks, multiple configurations are available for the combined road course layout(s). </p><p>An example of an outfield combined road course can be seen at the <a href="/wiki/Calder_Park_Raceway" title="Calder Park Raceway">Calder Park Raceway</a> in <a href="/wiki/Melbourne" title="Melbourne">Melbourne</a>, <a href="/wiki/Australia" title="Australia">Australia</a>. The Calder Park complex has a 1.119 mi (1.801 km) high-banked oval speedway called the Thunderdome as well as a separate road course. The road course and the oval can be linked via two short roads that connect the front straight of the road course to the back straight of the oval. As they are separate tracks, this creates a unique situation where different races can actually be run on both the oval and the full road course at the same time. Also unique is that unlike most combined circuits which use the oval track's start/finish line and pits, in the case of Calder Park it is the road course start/finish line and pits that are used. This configuration was used only twice (both in 1987) and has not been used for major motor racing since hosting <a href="/wiki/1987_Bob_Jane_T-Marts_500" title="1987 Bob Jane T-Marts 500">Round 9</a> of the <a href="/wiki/1987_World_Touring_Car_Championship_season" class="mw-redirect" title="1987 World Touring Car Championship season">1987 World Touring Car Championship</a>. </p> <div style="clear:both;" class=""></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Oval_track_construction_booms_in_North_America">Oval track construction booms in North America</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Oval_track_racing&action=edit&section=19" title="Edit section: Oval track construction booms in North America"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>There have been two distinct oval race track construction <a href="/wiki/Economic_boom" class="mw-redirect" title="Economic boom">"booms"</a> in the United States.
