New Hampshire International Speedway
1.058 mile oval track namely the New Hampshire Motor Speedway has hosted NASCAR racing ever since the 1990s. It is normally regarded as its location, Loudon; the track was opened in June 1990, after nine months of its creation subsequent to the Bahre family's procurement of the Bryar Motorsports Park. The existing road circuit was restored into a multi-use roadway, with NASCAR supplemented to the famous Loudon Classic motorcycle, WKA go-kart and SCCA races on the complex. Previously, being the prevalent speedway in New England, it afterwards expanded, consequently, made it the principal sports location of any type in the region. It's creation was exceptionally atypical for a race track, since it was designed and constructed with no consultation from engineers, and using just one surveyor to assist. In July 1990, NASCAR made its first appearance at the track, with a Busch Series race won by Tommy Ellis. For three years, the Busch Series hosted a pair of races at the track each year.
In 1993, these races were prosperous and led to Loudon earning a place on the NEXTEL Cup schedule. Rusty Wallace won the opening Slick 50 300 in July of that year.
In 1997, another race - 300-mile (500 km) - was added to the program, taking one of the spots that North Wilkesboro once had on the schedule after that track was sold in an estate sale. The race takes place in the mid September. In 2004, Loudon became the first race in NASCAR's Chase for the Cup "playoff" series.
For a periods of seven years, the track also hosted open wheel racing, apart from hosting CART from 1992-1995, then the Indy Racing League from 1996-1998.
In 2000, the track earned a reputation of having most fatal accidents ever to have taken place, taking lives of talented young drivers. While practicing for a Busch Series race in May, Adam Petty passed away, when his throttle stuck exiting the second turn, resulting in a full speed frontal crash in the middle of the third and fourth turns. When the Winston Cup Series made their first appearance of the season, unfortunately, in 1998 Rookie of the Year Kenny Irwin, Jr. suffered the same and died. For safeguard, track owners ascertained to run restrictor plates on the cars during their return trip to the speedway in September 2000, making it the first track in modern history to use them, outside of Daytona and Talladega. It would be the last one as well; a race won by Jeff Burton, which had no lead changes, was the result of the experiment.
Originally, the 2001 New Hampshire 300 race was scheduled for September 16, the Sunday after the September 11 terrorist attacks. NASCAR at first publicized that the race would take place as per se, but the event was delayed until November 23 of that year, which was the Friday after Thanksgiving. There was a great deal anxiety about the weather conditions, but race day turned out to be a pleasant day and Robby Gordon had won that race.
Two alterations had taken place later on. In 2002, in an endeavor to amplify competitive racing, the track's corners were turned into an inclined shape, as the apron was paved and became part of the track, and the track's slope was changed from previously, 4 degrees in the lower two lanes to 12% grade (about seven degrees). The adding of SAFER barricades to the corner walls was made in 2003.
During the September 2003 Sylvania 300, an event took place at this track when Dale Jarrett was stuck in the middle of the race track and was in danger of getting hit while other cars raced back to the caution flag. Consequently, NASCAR prohibited racing back to the caution flag, ensuing in a "free pass" which is recognized as "the lucky dog," in which the first car behind the leader not on the lead lap would get their lap back during each caution period in all of NASCAR's national and regional series.
In mid-May 2006, Loudon was one of many New England communities which suffered destructive floods after a week of record-breaking rainfall. Numerous roads and bridges were ruined close to the speedway. The infield was flooded, as was the track itself during a road racing event in progress. The facility also came across flooding in October 2005.
On November 2, 2007, a change in possession rights was announced. Bruton Smith, owner of Speedway Motorsports, Inc., proclaimed that they had purchased NHIS in $340 million. The name of the speedway will be altered to New Hampshire Motor Speedway. Both of its Sprint Cup dates will occur in 2008.
