The California Speedway is a two-mile D-shaped oval superspeedway in Fontana, California, approximately 40 miles east of Los Angeles on the site of the former Kaiser Steel mill. It is a relatively new race track, opening in early 1997, and has additional configurations and facilities to accommodate "road" races, motorcycle races, vehicle testing, and drag races. This racetrack is a stones throw from the old Ontario Motor Speedway and the old Riverside International Raceway. Ever since Riverside's closure in 1988, Southern California has not hosted a NASCAR race from 1988 to 1997 when the new California Speedway was opened.
