The Homestead Miami Speedway will host the final race of the 2011 NASCAR season.
The long NASCAR season culminates in a frenzy of
speed and fury on the asphalt of Homestead-Miami
Speedway. Bet on who’ll hoist the Nextel Cup,
NASCAR’s greatest prize, with Ford 400.
Homestead-Miami Speedway is a race track in
Homestead, Florida southwest of Miami. It plays
host to Ford Championship Weekend, the final
races of the season in the NASCAR Sprint Cup
Series, Nationwide Series, and the Camping World
Truck Series.
The Homestead-
Miami Speedway opened in 1995, but the first
Sprint Cup race wasn’t run until 1999. Six
different drivers have won at Homestead, but
Greg Biffle is the only multiple winner with
three. Homestead is one of only two tracks that
Jeff Gordon has never won at. Tony Stewart won
the very first race here in November of 1999.
The facility is considered by some to be one of
the most beautiful in the country. The track
reflects the art deco district of downtown Miami
with its liberal use of colors such as aqua,
purple and silver, among other colors. The
1½-mile oval with 18-degree to 20-degree
variable banking is composed of two, long
straight-aways with palm trees lining the
backstretch, two pristine lakes and a winding
road-course in the middle and is best known for
finishes that keep NASCAR fans on
their feet!
