Talladega Superspeedway (formerly
Alabama International Motor Speedway) is a
motorsports complex located north of
Talladega, Alabama,
United States.
[1] It is located on the former
Anniston Air Force Base just outside the small city of
Lincoln. The Track is a
Tri-oval and was constructed by
International Speedway Corporation, a business controlled by the
France Family, in the 1960s. Talladega is most known for its steep banking and the unique location of the start/finish line - which is closer to turn one than at
Daytona. The track currently hosts the
NASCAR series such as the
Sprint Cup Series,
Nationwide Series, and the
Camping World Truck Series. Talladega Superspeedway is the longest
NASCARoval with a length of 2.66 miles (4.28 km), and the track also has a
seating capacity of 175,000 spectators.
