Las Vegas Motor Speedway is a multiple-purpose motorsports complex with nine independent racing facilities, constructed on a 1,200-acre (490 ha) lot of land in the outskirts of Las Vegas, Nevada. Its location in the Entertainment Capital of the World is ideal for hosting huge audiences at every event organized in the complex, and the reason why all major North American sanctioning bodies such as NASCAR or IndyCar host races in Las Vegas. The complex includes a 1.5-mile tri-oval speedway, a 1/4-mile drag strip, a 3/8-mile oval track called "the Bullring," a 1/2-mile clay oval dirt track, an off-road course, a karting track, an inside road course, and the outside road course, with its two configurations available.
The outside road course is independent of all the other racing facilities and runs clockwise in two configurations: the 14-turn, 2.4-mile (3.86-km), and the 11-turn, 2-mile (3.21-km) layout. The difference between them is that the 2-miler configuration bypasses three corners at the southern tip of the road course. The disposition of the circuit is intricate, with sharp bends, sweeping turns, short acceleration sectors, and some bumps along the road, all of which keep the average speed around 70 mph (112 km/h) in both of the available layouts.
The average lap time in the 2.4-mile (3.86-km) configuration of the Las Vegas Motor Speedway Outside Road Course is 2:00.5, with an average speed of 72 mph (115 km/h). There are 14 turns in total, including the boot in turns one, two, and three.
