Location
 IBT has once again rented the entire Kansas Speedway for two days! Kansas Speedway is a 1.5 mile tri-oval racetrack suitable for all types of racing.
The speedway is strategically located at the intersection of I-435 and I-70 in Kansas City, Kan., about 15 miles west of downtown Kansas City.
The track seats nearly 82,000 spectators in the grandstands, but will eventually expand to 150,000 upon completion of the final phase of  development. For more information, visit the Kansas Speedway website.
