NASCAR Tracks

News, statistics, schedules and information about NASCAR tracks from all divisions.
Oldest NASCAR Race Tracks
NASCAR has a rich history of racing dating back to 1949. Many great race tracks disappeared on their own as victims of financial hard times or urban development. Other tracks were simply bumped from the schedule in order to free up a date for a newer track. Here are the oldest current NASCAR NEXTEL Cup race tracks?

Should NASCAR be racing in Mexico? Are international races good for the sport?
In 2005 NASCAR held its first modern era points race outside of the United States when the Busch Series visited Mexico in early March. Given that there are areas of the United States that are desperate for a local NASCAR race, does it make sense for NASCAR to be taking its product out of the country?
Time For Drastic Action At California Speedway
California Speedway features a wide racing surface that should allow for a lot of exciting racing. Unfortunately, Sunday's Auto Club 500 featured a lot of nothing. This is not the first time that a NASCAR race at California was boring. In fact, they've all been pretty bad. It is time for California Speedway to fix the problem. Bring on the bulldozers!
