The Track

“The Tricky Triangle” is host to two NASCAR Sprint Cup Series and ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards races each year and added a NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race in 2010. Pocono Raceway’s 2.5-mile triangular design makes it truly unique. Pocono is the only track on the NASCAR Sprint Cup Circuit with three turns, three different radii and three variant degrees of banking. All that ensures our fans will enjoy some serious action, meanwhile presenting a competitive challenge to the world’s best drivers and their crew chiefs. Pocono strives to create a family atmosphere with increased focus on the Fan Experience.  We are Pocono Raceway and this is “The Tricky Triangle.”

In business for over 50 years, Pocono Raceway is family-owned and situated in the beautiful Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania. We are located within 300 miles of one-third of the U.S. population and within 90 miles of New York City and Philadelphia. Pocono Raceway is and always will be an attractive option for NASCAR and race fans alike.

Pocono Raceway is the world’s largest solar powered sports facility. The Raceway developed a 25 acre, three megawatt solar farm that provides the energy needs of the Raceway as well as adding electricity to the local power grid.

2011 Good Sam RV Insurance 500 Reasults - Keselowski wins with ironman performance

In the closing laps of the Good Sam RV Insurance 500 at Pocono Raceway, Kurt Busch was running third, with his teammate Brad Keselowski leading and his younger brother, Kyle, running in second.

But not only did they not wreck, Keselowski won in what will long be remembered as one of the ironman performances in NASCAR history.

Earlier in the week, Keselowski broke his ankle in a bad testing accident when the accelerator jammed and his car slammed into the wall.

There was some question if he’d need a relief driver over the tedious 500 miles at Pocono.

Keselowski ran the whole race, overtook rival Kyle Busch for the lead after the final caution, then drove away for his third career win.

2010 Sunoco Red Cross Pennsylvania 500 - Race Results

Greg Biffle broke a 64-race losing streak with an emotional victory in Sunday's Sunoco Red Cross Pennsylvania 500 at Pocono Raceway.

Biffle used a series of two-tire pit stops to gain track position, leading the final 20 laps of the race to win for the first time since Dover International Speedway in 2008. More importantly, perhaps, the victory came five days after team co-owner Jack Roush was seriously injured in an airplane crash in Wisconsin.

Biffle drove to victory in the same No. 16 Ford Fusion he drove to a third-place finish last week at Indianapolis.
