The new track is 4.5 miles long, making it the longest track in the country. The track has been designed by Alan Wilson of South Africa. He is considered the premier race track designer in the world. He has taken many signature turns from top tracks worldwide and incorporated them into his design. The new track is located about five and one half hours from Las Vegas on Route 15 Northbound.
