Around The Track
While each racetrack is different, most tracks feature a number of areas in common.
1 Garage Area -- Cars are kept here when not on the track, providing each crew a stall in which they can work on the car.
2 Inspection Area -- Before taking to the track, cars are inspected by NASCAR Officials to ensure they meet all regulations.
3 Pit Road -- Each team is awarded a pit stall, based on its qualifying results, to perform pit stops and service its car.
4 Infield -- Many tracks offer infield camping sites to fans, allowing them a unique view of the race and a place to socialize with each other.
5 Race Officials -- Several officials are stationed at points around the track to scan the racing surface for debris and ensure all competitors are adhering to the rules of racing.
6 Flagstand -- A NASCAR Official commands the action from this perch above the start/finish line.
7 Media Center -- Provides a place for media to file reports on the action.
8 Race Control -- Several NASCAR Officials use this area to follow the action, watch replays, regulate the race and provide rulings as needed.
9 Spotter Stand -- Each team has spotter that follows the action and helps the driver navigate the racetrack and avoid colliding with other competitors.
