Texas Motor Speedway is among the most challenging tracks on the Sprint Cup circuit. As is the case with any race held at the “Great American Speedway,” the Samsung 500 is truly anyone’s contest. Only Jeff Burton has championed this one and a half mile behemoth on more than one occasion since it first opened in 1997. The timing of the Samsung 500 in the Sprint Cup season gives this race particular significance. After two grueling contests on short tracks, the much longer track at TMS allows drivers to open up and reach speeds approaching a thundering 200 mph. This always makes for intense drama, especially when the drivers are coming out of turn four. With crucial early-season points at stake, a strong finish at the Samsung 500 allows drivers to begin to set themselves ahead of the pack in the hunt for the Chase.

Race fans enjoy a great deal of hospitality when attending events at the Texas Motor Speedway. With its pristine facilities and abundance of camping and RV sites, TMS has become a favorite for tailgating on race weekend. Owner Bruton Smith is well-known for allowing a relaxed atmosphere at his race track, always ensuring fans will have a very enjoyable experience. Since each ticket holder is allowed to bring one 14-inch cooler into the grandstands, fans are able to get the maximum bargain while cheering on their favorite drivers in person.
