Talladega Superspeedway is over-the-top excitement - - on and off the track. Plan ahead to stay on property in one of the track's hundreds of acres of overnight parks, and a fun and carefree weekend will be your payoff.

Track History
On an unassuming stretch of land suited for soybean farming located next to a couple of abandoned airport runways, crews constructed the biggest superspeedway in NASCAR, Talladega Superspeedway. Since Alabama International Motor Speedway (as it was called until 1989) opened its gates in September 1969, the track has surpassed every initial expectation.
