Segments: The NASCAR Sprint Cup season will be broken into 5 segments covering the NASCAR Season. The Sprint Cup Series will be used to determine week groupings, with four (4) exceptions where there are stand-alone events for either NXS or NCWTS. The number of events will vary by weekend with the other Series.
Most NASCAR tracks are 1 1/2-mile oval tracks. These are referred to as speedways and usually see track speeds topping out at or near 190 MPH. Atlanta Motor Speedway is the lone exception, due to its longer backstretch than most 1 1/2-mile tracks, and has occasionally seen speeds pushing 200 MPH.
