The Super Speedway of Supercars!

Steeped in racing history, the New York state racing facility will play host to the 4th Round of the Logitech G Supercar Pro Invitational Series. Despite being fairly simple in it's design, the NASCAR Cup layout will provide close and action packed draft racing where qualifying and and strategy will be paramount in earning a good result.
