Talladega Superspeedway opened in 1969 on the site of the former Anniston Air Force Base in Lincoln, Alabama, and was known as Alabama International Motor Speedway until 1989. The 2.66-mile tri-oval has turns banked at 33 degrees and hosts two NASCAR Cup Series races a year, one in spring and one in fall. Next to the track, the International Motorsports Hall of Fame has three exhibit halls on a self-guided walk of about an hour.
