Auto Club Speedway, previously known as California Speedway is a relatively new track built in early 1997 and has been the host for many racing series including NASCAR, IRL, Motorcycle, Grand-Am, and even JGTC. This D-shaped oval incorporates 11-degree banking on the front straight with 14-degree banking in NASCAR Turns 1 and 2. This track also has a series of infield road-course combinations with the largest and fastest utilizing the oval’s front straight and first two turns before going back down into the infield. This 2.88 17-turn "roval" is a common configuration for everything from Grand-Am to track days.



Enjoy!

Just curious.
will you be attending the 2010 Time attack/Superlap in Australia?

They have a picture of your car on their website.

I notice the Tomei/Cusco WRX & Panspeed Rx7 from Japan have entered.

It seems to be getting a lot of interest.
