After the bumping and running of the short track of Martinsville, it’s time for those drivers to unleash the speed at one of the fastest tracks on the schedule in the heart of Texas. Texas Motor Speedway is a 1.5-mile Quad-oval track that is known for speed and lots of it.
The track is a bit different than your run-of-the-mill mile-and-a-half track as the banking is different in both sets of turns with Turns 1 & 2 banked at 20 degrees and Turns 3 & 4 tilted at 24 degrees. While the banking isn’t progressive it does allow for speed to keep up throughout the lap and just keep building to the point where, prior to the new aero package, speeds were routinely hitting 200-plus MPH into Turn 1.
The track was repaved prior to the 2017 season and so this will be just the fifth race on that surface and so the wear isn’t really there yet, and neither is a defined second groove. The track has been using tools to try and get a second groove to come in, but as of yet, it hasn’t come in consistently meaning passing might be trickier than it has been in races past. The Goodyear tires being run this week are designed to run cooler and try and lay more rubber throughout the race despite the relatively green track. If the tires run hot, they don’t get as much grip and they run the risk of blowing during the race since, without the falloff, they will be changed less often.

Of the 36 races that have been held at Texas Motor Speedway since it opened in 1996, 21 eventual winners started in spots 1-5 in the grid with the most winners coming from the third spot with nearly a quarter starting there. That being said, the last five Spring races at Texas have seen winners start from P8, P24, P15, P5, and P10 in the starting grid going from most recent to least recent.
*There are a couple of new tables in this week’s breakdown, please feel free to let me know what you think of them in the NASCAR Chat.
