Kansas Speedway

Kansas Speedway has been referred to as one of the "cookie-cutter" race tracks; meaning that it resembles many of the other modern-day tracks and, along with Chicagoland Motor Speedway, one of the two newest tracks to come upon the NASCAR scene.

Opened in 2001, the 1.5-mile course has 15 degrees of banking in the corners, and is just beginning to make a name for itself, having hosted two exciting races in 2006 and 2007. Now, by hosting the Price Chopper 400, the third of ten critical Chase races, NASCAR history will undoubtedly be written on a regular basis each and every season.
