Michigan International Speedway is one of NASCAR’s fastest tracks. But there is some confusion. Michigan International Speedway now hosts two 400 mile NASCAR events. The first, occurring in mid-June, is the Lifelock 400. The second comes later in the season and is known as the 3M Performance 400. Both are showcases for NASCAR and breathtaking displays of unadulterated speed at one of the sports finest tracks.
This track is big, wide, and fast. Topping 200 is as routine as Sunday breakfast. Besides NASCAR, you’ll also find Indy Racing at Michigan International Speedway, along with Craftsman Truck and Nationwide Series.
Michigan International Speedway is a favorite track among drivers, who enjoy its wide surface that allows them to choose the most effective line for them to compete for NASCAR glory.
MIS is a wide open track with lots of grooves to pick from. Jeff Gordon says this is his favorite track, and he says so with good reason. Dale Earnhardt Jr. says this is one of the few tracks where you’ll get the side-by- side racing. Horsepower and handling will be key on this 2-mile track. The front stretch runs 3,600 feet on 12 degrees banking, the turns offer 18 inches of banking, while there’s 5 degrees of banking on the backstretch that runs 2,242 feet.
