Las Vegas Motor Speedway (track complex formerly known as various names) is a 1.500 mi (2.414 km) tri-oval intermediate speedway in Las Vegas, Nevada. The track complex has hosted various major racing events since its opening, including NASCAR, IndyCar, and Champ Car. The venue has a capacity of 80,000 as of 2023. The track's complex features various adjacent tracks, including a 0.375 mi (0.604 km) oval, a 0.500 mi (0.805 km) clay oval, and a road course with multiple layouts. The main track also features an infield road course that is used for sports car racing. The facility is owned by Speedway Motorsports, LLC (SMI) and led by track general manager Patrick Lindsey.

After the closure of Stardust International Raceway in 1971, plans were made to build a new road course and drag strip in North Las Vegas by Craig Road Speedway owner Curly Price on city of Las Vegas-owned land. The then-named Las Vegas Speedrome was completed in 1972, with preliminary races being held before in 1971; however, the track fell quickly into disrepair. The track was revived by drag racer Alex Rodriguez and his son for most of the 1980s. During Rodriguez's tenure, a 0.375 mi (0.604 km) oval was added in 1985, which is now known as The Bullring. In 1989, Richie Clyne, the director of the Imperial Palace Hotel's (now called The Linq) automobile museum, bought the complex from the city. By the mid-1990s, Clyne, Imperial Palace owner Ralph Engelstad, and Sahara Hotel owner Bill Bennett announced plans to build a 1.500 mi (2.414 km) oval on the track's complex, which was completed in 1996. In 1998, SMI and its founder Bruton Smith bought the complex.
