Track Statistics & History

Banking I Turns: 25 / 23 degrees
Diatance: 1.366 miles

Harold Brasington knew what he was
doing in 1949 when he started pushing dirt
around an old peanut field. With every lap
those graders and bulldozers completed,
the Darlington Raceway came to life. Fifty
nine years later the Dadington Raceway is
a unique, somewhat egg-shaped oval with
the nickname of "Too Tough To Tame." Today, the track,s
specifications remain true to Mr. Brasington's vision,
with the exception of a few minor adjustments. It was the
first superspeedway built with NASCAR racing in mind.
There have been over 100 NASCAR Sprint Cup races
since the track opened. Retired driver David Pearson
teads all drivers with 10 victories. #
