Official Track Map

World Wide Technology Raceway, located just ouside of St. Louis, Missouri , in the Metro East city of Madison, Illinois, is an intriguing 1.25-mile (2.01 km) oval favored by many of the drivers who race there due to the unique shape and varying degrees of banking in each corner. Turns 1 & 2 have characteristics similar to New Hampshire Motor Speedway while Turns 3 & 4 are similar to Phoenix Raceway and the track's egg shape is reminiscent of the oval at the former Twin Ring Motegi in Japan.
