From Fort Worth

Use Loop 820 and exit FM 156 (Blue Mound Road). Follow 156 north until you approach the speedway and turn right on Petty Place (over railroad tracks).

Alternate routes: Take Interstate 35W north to U.S. 287 north. Exit at FM 156, turn right and follow FM 156 to the speedway. If you take Interstate 35W to the track (not recommended unless you’re arriving more than four hours before the race), exit Dale Earnhardt Way and travel west onto the merge with Victory Circle, which winds around to the west side of the speedway.

From Arlington

Take Interstate 30 or I-20 to Loop 820 and follow the directions above from Fort Worth.

From Northeast Tarrant

Texas 114 is the most obvious route, but it gets congested in a hurry. Leave early if you plan to use this route.

Alternate route: Follow Texas 121 to Texas 183 west and hook up with Loop 820 westbound, where you can take I-35W or FM 156 north. Going home, fans can try exiting the speedway on I-35W southbound and exit at Texas 170 just past Alliance Airport. This will circle back north and hook up with Texas 114 eastbound.

Express buses

Take the Fort Worth Transportation Authority’s Victory Lane Express buses to the speedway from the Tarrant County College Northwest Campus, 4801 Marine Creek Parkway. Buses depart from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. Saturday and Sunday. Buses begin returning 30 minutes after the race ends, with the last return bus 90 minutes after the race. Cost: $10 round trip. Call 817-215-8600.
