Memphis-Arkansas Speedway
A 1.53-mile (2.46 km) NASCAR-style oval located in LeHi, Arkansas; which is about 15 miles west of Memphis. It is located on the site of a former dirt oval of the same name and length, which was abandoned in 1957. It features turn bankings of 25 degrees in turns 1-2, 23 degrees in turns 3-4, and 3.7-degree banking on the straightaways. These are very steep bankings for a mile-and-a-half track. The roval is 2.37 miles (3.81 km) and runs counterclockwise. Primary uses for the oval would be NASCAR, ARCA, and possibly IndyCar. The roval could be used by the United Sports Car Series.
