The Ultimate Fan Checklist: 16 NASCAR Tracks Every Die-Hard Needs to Visit

14. Pocono Raceway: The Tricky Triangle

Nicknamed “The Tricky Triangle,” Pocono Raceway in Pennsylvania is unlike any other track in NASCAR. With just three turns—each with its own radius and banking—it demands versatility and precision from drivers. Opened in 1971, the 2.5-mile superspeedway combines the long straightaways of a road course with the high-speed intensity of an oval. Fuel mileage gambles and daring restarts often define the races here. The infield camping scene is electric, and the wide sightlines make it a fan-friendly viewing experience. If you love strategy-driven races with unpredictable twists, Pocono belongs on your NASCAR bucket list.
