Take a lap around the repaved Kansas Speedway

Want to take a ride around Kansas Speedway before any Sprint Cup Series driver?

The repaving on the oval at the track is complete, and click play above to ride along for a lap around the newly variably banked track. The 1.5 mile tri-oval used to have 15 degrees of banking in the corners and now features 17 degrees in the bottom line and 20 degrees on the top line near the wall. (The difference in banking is definitely noticeable from groove to groove.)

The road course that's being added to the track is still under construction, as is the apron, which you can see from the video. And for those of you having Montoya flashbacks, you can breathe easy. No safety vehicles were harmed in the making of this video.
