Following a full track review with NASCAR and ISC, Auto Club Speedway will add additional safeguards to those already in place in advance of its Auto Club 400 Weekend March 20-22. Auto Club Speedway will install tire pack barriers inside Turn 1 prior to the NASCAR XFINITY Series Drive4Clots 300.com and the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Auto Club 400.
Following our upcoming race weekend, Auto Club Speedway will begin installation of SAFER barrier along the frontstretch and backstretch walls. Once completed, the entire frontstretch and backstretch will have SAFER barriers for 2016 events at Auto Club Speedway . In preparation for the 2016 racing season, we will continue to collaborate and evaluate additional safety enhancements .
“The safety of drivers, and our fans and staff is, and always has been, a top priority,” said Dave Allen, Auto Club Speedway President. “As part of our continued commitment to safety, we will work hand-in-hand with NASCAR and all sanctioning bodies that race at our track to make improvements that will further enhance safety.”
