History With 1,600 acres in the northeast portion of the Las Vegas Valley, the "Diamond in the Desert" has been deemed the most remarkable race complex in the world. With more than a dozen different venues at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, ranging from go-karts to NASCAR Cup at the 1.5-mile superspeedway, there's something for everyone at the complex. Short track programs include The Bullring (a 3/8-mile paved oval), along with road courses, a dirt track, and a state-of-the-art dragway.
Construction on LVMS began in 1995, and required crews to move a total of four million cubic yards of dirt, equaling 35,000 yards per day. A custom-designed lighting system features 2,600 lighting fixtures on 200 light poles.
Since it opened with the Las Vegas 500 IndyCar Series event in 1996, Las Vegas Motor Speedway has blossomed. LVMS has been lauded by every driver and fan who have been to the facility. The tri-oval features 12-degree banking in all turns, three-degree banking on the backstretch and nine-degree banking on the front stretch.
