About Charlotte Motor Speedway Racing Experience
Charlotte Motor Speedway, a top destination for motorsports entertainment, is located in Concord, North Carolina, just north of Charlotte. Charlotte boasts a fast track and the nickname “The Beast of the Southeast.” H.A. “Humpy Wheeler,” president and general manager of Charlotte Motor Speedway, states that the racetrack is “narrow, uphill on the frontstretch and downhill on the backstretch” and that it has “a very mysterious entrance to Turn 1” plus “a fourth turn so tight it has scared even the sport’s toughest drivers.” Wheeler points out that after the track was repaved in 2006 using computer technology, “we got perhaps the smoothest surface in racing history,” and “with this smooth surface came more grip, and our races were really close and competitive.” The track is labeled “mean” because it is “fast, racy, unpredictable, subject to huge changes in temperature and one that requires a gifted driver to get to victory lane.” Dale Jarrett won at Charlotte in 1994, 1996, and 1997.
