NASCAR’s Most Exciting Track
Bristol Motor Speedway is one of the shortest racetracks on the NASCAR circuit and definitely brings about exciting racing. The track is half a mile in length. Ready for a math moment? If the track is half of a mile that means the track is 2,640 feet in length. Now, each car is 17 feet long. With 43 cars, at 17 feet apiece, all together they would equal 731 feet in length. Still following? The point I am making is this: the race cars themselves take up almost a quarter of the race track! Add that to top speeds of 125 miles per hour and you will absolutely get incredibly exciting racing!
If you cannot already tell, Bristol is my favorite racetrack. The track facilities are very similar in both size and shape to a bowl football stadium. This allows for the chance to be up close and personal with the race cars. Every lap is filled with sliding cars, flaring driver temper and simply good racing. I believe everyone would be a NASCAR fan if they could experience a race at Bristol.
