ISM Raceway in Phoenix, Arizona is an American motorsports facility. It is home to NASCAR races, and other racing events. The multi-purpose facility has grandstands, a start/finish point and grandstands. The facility holds 130,000 spectators. Its main features include revenue, start/finish line, and grandstands.
Grandstands
ISM Raceway's grandstands can hold up to 42,000 people. Although the ISM raceway has a smaller crowd than other NASCAR tracks that have large attendances, it is still a fun event for all ages. ISM Raceway's grandstands still have capacity, and many of the fans feel that the attendance is excellent.
ISM Raceway's grandstands aren't all created equal. Therefore, some sections have greater capacity than others. The Bobby Allison grandstand, which was built in 2005, is now operational. It's located near Turns 1 (and 2) This grandstand is a better option for race fans.
Start/finish Line
Many drivers believe the repositioning of the Start/finish line at ISMS Raceway near the dogleg area will facilitate late-race restarts. The start line allows drivers the opportunity to run five wide in turn 1. This will allow for many late-race restarts. The new layout of the racetrack also features a glass wall that can be used for driver's meetings. This allows fans the opportunity to talk with drivers after the meeting. There is no other NASCAR track that offers this close proximity to drivers.
The corner of the old dogleg, and turn two was the place where the start/finish line used to be. With this new location, it will allow for more radical line choices and expand the inside apron. This new layout could turn this quirky track into a restarter's paradise. The new configuration will be the most competitive and attractive for drivers such as Kyle Busch, Kevin Harvick and others. Double-file restarts will increase creativity and the number of events that restarts can bring.
Revenue
The ISM Speedway is one of America's most important sporting venues. It is worth $473 million annually in revenue. Recent renovations to the venue included a complete rebuilding of the facility. A new facility was constructed in 2017. Revenue from the raceway's capacity has been growing year after year.
ISM Raceway has seen ticket sales increase significantly since its renovation. The average ticket price rose to $76. Redevelopment of ISM Raceway has also led to an incremental boost in EBITDA by approximately $8.5million to $9million annually.
Modernization project
Phoenix Raceway in Avondale has announced a $178million modernization program. The project will see a new start/finish line and infield, along with improvements to the track experience and spectator experience. The project also includes a pedestrian tunnel that connects the infield and new seating areas with Wi Fi connectivity.

Statistics
- Acceleration is a little gentler (relatively speaking) too, with 0-100km/h taking an estimated 3.1 seconds and 0-200km/h covered in 7.8 seconds. (autosport.com)
- This change may give an improvement of up to 29% fuel efficiency. (en.wikipedia.org)
- Forget the 200-mph battles of the late 1980s; no one, not even McLaren itself, predicted the inimitable F1 would go as fast as it did. (motortrend.com)
- In 2009, the slick tires returned as a part of revisions to the rules for the 2009 season; slicks have no grooves and give up to 18% more contact with the track. (en.wikipedia.org)

How To
How to turn fast
To be able to go faster, you must get your car out in front of others during a race. This means that you need to turn before others. This will ensure that everyone behind you is unable to see what's happening ahead. You will also avoid being in an accident with cars coming from all directions. How can you corner fast?
First, you must understand where you're going. You'll likely end up somewhere unexpected if you don't know your destination. This is why it's important to plan well. You can make a map of your route to help you see where you are at any moment. It might seem like a lot of work, but if you've got a good idea of where you're trying to go, it will save you lots of headaches later.
Next, determine when you will start turning. The best place to begin is right after you pass the first corner. Once you pass the first corner, then you will know exactly where to begin. Now you just need to decide whether you'll use the inside lane or the outside lane.
If you're planning to take the inside lane, you'll want to wait until there's no traffic in front of you. If you do this, you will be able to move quickly and without fear of hitting someone. You must keep the inside lane straightened once you have entered it. Do not allow yourself to drift back into the outside lanes. You could hit someone moving slowly if you do. Keep in mind that if you cross the line dividing the two lanes, you'll lose control of your vehicle and become vulnerable to crashes.
Once you've decided which lane you're going to use, you need to pick a spot to turn. This problem can be tackled in many ways. Some people prefer to look for a gap in traffic. Others look for a gap in traffic. Others look for the point where the road curves around hills or mountains. Whatever method you choose, remember that you need to be careful not to block the entire road. If you do, then you'll end up causing traffic jams all across town.
Once you have selected a location to turn from, you must decide whether to make a sharp left-hand or a gradual right. A sharper turn is more difficult than a gradual. However, it requires more effort and takes longer to complete. You may also find it difficult to control your car correctly. Many drivers prefer to take gradual turns because of this.
You need to accelerate quickly enough to make it possible to escape the car in front. Accelerating too fast will cause you crash into its bumper. If you accelerate too slowly, you will run off of the road. In either case you will lose control of your vehicle and crash. Accelerating slowly is the best way to avoid this. Start with very little acceleration, and only increase it as you near the edge of the road.
After you finish cornering, it is important to immediately slow down. This is especially important if you are driving in heavy traffic. If you don't, you risk hitting someone.
