This weekend, NASCAR travels to Naval Base Coronado in San Diego to compete in the first-ever NASCAR street course race on an active military base. The track layout will consist of a 16-turn, 3.4-mile street course.
As the United States celebrates its 250th anniversary, NASCAR’s debut at Naval Base Coronado in San Diego marks a historic intersection of stock-car racing and military tradition.
Notes
NASCAR Hall of Famer Jimmie Johnson will join the competitors and pilot the No. 84 Legacy Motor Club Toyota in the Cup Series race.
Justin Fantozzi, Goodyear director of racing for the Americas, spoke about the tires they will bring to the track for this one-of-a-kind event.
“Visiting a new track brings a new set of challenges for the industry, but one constant for the teams will be their Goodyear Racing Eagle tires. The road-course specification we introduced for the Cup Series last season will be raced for the ninth time this weekend,” He continued, stating that “we have seen consistent performance at other road and street courses. That familiarity gives teams a reliable baseline as they prepare for a new venue.”
Tire allotments for each team will include the following:
Cup Series: 9 dry-weather sets. This includes 5 new sets for the race – 1 for qualifying that transfers to the race and 3 for practice. Teams will also have 6 wet-weather sets available.
O’Reilly Auto Parts Series: 6 dry-weather sets. This includes 3 new sets for the race – 1 for qualifying that transfers to the race and 2 for practice. Teams will also have 4 wet-weather sets available.
Craftsman Truck Series: 6 dry-weather sets. This includes 3 new sets for the race – 1 for qualifying that transfers to the race and 2 for practice. Teams will also have 4 wet-weather sets available.
