About Las Vegas Motor Speedway

For even faster times in Sin City, head a few miles northeast of the Strip, to the far corner of the Las Vegas Valley. There you'll find the 1,200-acre motorsports complex known as the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. The speedway, which now features nine different racetracks, is a relatively new addition to the American motorsports scene, but it's become a destination for racing fans in short order. At various points on the calendar, it is home to NASCAR's top racing series, NASCAR's pickup truck racing series, and NHRA drag racing, among other events.

Las Vegas Motor Speedway History

The speedway's roots go back to 1972 when the Las Vegas Speedrome opened. A road course and drag strip, the Speedrome added a short track in 1985. Eleven years later, Ralph Engelstad of what was then the Imperial Palace and Casino joined up with William Bennett of the Sahara Hotel to build a $72 million superspeedway on the site of the Speedrome. IndyCar driver Richie Hearn christened the shiny new digs with a victory in the Las Vegas 500K. Two years later, NASCAR's cup series came to the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. The inaugural race, the Las Vegas 400, was won by Mark Martin, with 120,000 people in attendance. As of 2020, Jimmie Johnson held the track record for Cup Series victories with four.

Visitors to Las Vegas Motor Speedway should be sure to check out the Neon Garage, an interactive fan zone known in racing circles as "NASCAR's Disneyland." It's located in the center of the speedway's infield and features concession stands, live music, the Winner's Circle, and up-close-and-personal access to drivers and their race teams. Lucky fans might come away with a souvenir lug nut. Beyond racing events, the speedway also offers a variety of driving "experiences" for car lovers who want to get behind the wheel themselves.

    Okay

    by Bill G on 11/2/23Las Vegas Motor Speedway - Las Vegas

    I have been going to this track for many years now but this past week I was not happy with the cleanliness of the food ares and the restrooms were horrific. Many stalls had no toilet paper or even dispensers for them. No paper towels to dry hands and definitely no attendant. Bruton would be turning over in his grave

    Great Saturday

    by Bob on 10/31/23Las Vegas Motor Speedway - Las Vegas

    Had a great day on Saturday. My wish list to make my enjoyment higher as a older fan. At the track: It was a little hard to hear the announcements. Also, I would like to see a schedule of qualification sequence and approx times. On the NHRA website: I would like to have a explanation of the groups of cars and what they have to comply with to be in that group. For example: pro stock vs super stock and top alcohol vs top fuel. Also? Why do the alcohol dragster and cars start slower and them "jump on it"after being a ways down the track. So "learning helps"could be on your website to help the "newbies"with what they see. We did not ALL grow up in the 50's and 60's. Thanks

    Great time, great venue

    by Kylot on 10/31/23Las Vegas Motor Speedway - Las Vegas

    Had a great time at LVMS watching NHRA drags. The venue is well laid-out with easy in-out parking. I loved that they allow in & out so that we could eat our lunch at the car and return for more racing. The event was packed with plenty to do and see and I love that each ticket is also a pit-pass. Already planning next years racing only this time we're doing a weekend package.

    Bleachers

    by Denny on 10/31/23Las Vegas Motor Speedway - Las Vegas

    Access to the upper bleachers (covered area) needs a better approach. I think you would find it’s mostly the older crowd that wants to be out of the sun. Those stairs are brutal and to make matters worse there the only way to the washrooms.
