WHERE LEGENDS ARE MADE

01

HISTORIC LEGACY

Racing since 1947. Champions and legends of NASCAR, F1, IndyCar, Le Mans, USAC, ARCA and more have raced on these high banks. When you come to Salem, you're part of that history.

02

THE HIGH BANKS

The same 33-degree banking that tested A.J. Foyt, Mario Andretti and Jeff Gordon is still here. Multiple grooves mean side-by-side racing and passes on every lap.

03

BE PART OF THE LEGEND

Every seat puts you close to the action. Meet the drivers, feel the engines shake the grandstand, and camp the weekend to make your own Salem story.
