NASCAR will have its series at two sites this weekend, with the Cup Series and CRAFTSMAN Truck Series in Madison, Illinois, and the Xfinity Series and ARCA Menards Series heading west to Portland, Oregon.
The Fox family of channels will carry all the action.
Gateway Motorsports Park (now known as World Wide Technology Raceway) is a motorsport racing facility located just east of St. Louis, close to the Gateway Arch. It features a 1.250 mi (2.012 km) oval that hosts the NASCAR Cup Series, NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, and the NTT IndyCar Series; a 2.000 mi (3.219 km) infield road course used by SpeedTour TransAm, SCCA, and Porsche Club of America; a quarter-mile NHRA-sanctioned drag strip that hosts the annual NHRA Mission Foods Drag Racing Series Midwest Nationals event; and the Kartplex, a state-of-the-art karting facility.
The oval is a favorite for many fans and racers alike due to the unique shape and different degrees of banking in each corner. The backstretch is confined to run parallel with Illinois Route 203, making Turns 1 & 2 a tighter radius than Turns 3 & 4. Turns 1 & 2 have similar characteristics to New Hampshire Motor Speedway while Turns 3 & 4 are similar to Phoenix Raceway. The track’s egg shape mimics the legendary Darlington Raceway and Mobility Resort Motegi race tracks.
Portland International Raceway (PIR) is a motorsport facility in Portland, Oregon. It is part of the Delta Park complex on the former site of Vanport, just south of the Columbia River. It lies west of the Delta Park/Vanport light rail station and less than a mile west of Interstate 5. It has been hosting the NASCAR Xfinity Series regularly since 2022.
