In addition to the professional racing series that visit Miller Motorsports Park, the track also has its own locally-based racing series for road racing cars and motorcycles, Supermoto motorcycles and karts (with competitors’ ages ranging from five to 65 years old). There is racing taking place almost every weekend between April and October. View the 2008 season schedule.

The track at Miller Motorsports Park is a 4.5-mile, 40-50 foot wide, 24-turn circuit, the longest in North America. It has four different configurations, ranging from two different 2.2-mile circuits (East and West Courses) to the 3.08-mile Perimeter Course and the 4.5-mile Full Course. The 3500-foot main straightaway allows the fastest cars and motorcycles to approach 200 mph before braking for Turn 1. The 511-acre facility also boasts a 0.9-mile paved karting circuit, one of the finest in the country, with 20 different configurations available.

Miller Motorsports Park offers something for almost every motorsports enthusiast. There are rental karts available for young and old. The Performance Training Center offers classes in auto racing, high-performance driving, karting and Supermoto, plus a Teen Driving Academy, Highway Survival School and Winter Driving Academy. The Larry H. Miller Museum is home to some of the world’s most significant racing cars, specializing in cars associated with the legendary Carroll Shelby. The Race Fanzz retail store offers clothing, souvenirs, collectibles and gift certificates. The track also holds Open Track Days, during which individuals can drive their car on the track after a brief orientation course, and has a multi-level Club Membership Program that offers exclusive access and amenities.

Corporate activities are very popular at Miller Motorsports Park, with full banquet, conference and classroom facilities available plus a variety of entertainment and team-building options utilizing the racetrack, school and karting facility.

THE RACE TRACK

The road course is a 4.5-mile-long, 40-50-foot-wide, 24-turn layout that provides a variety of cornering speeds, from 50 mph to well over 100 mph. The fastest cars and motorcycles will approach 200 mph on the track's 50-foot-wide, 3500-foot main straight.

The course has four possible configurations. The 2.24-mile East Course is a highly technical challenge suited to lower-powered, better-handling cars and motorcycles, while the 2.2-mile West Course is fitting for higher-powered, larger cars and motorcycles.

The East Course has as many as seven major overtaking areas and 14 corners, including the three-turn esses, which have significant elevation changes. The feature corner on the East Course is the final turn, a 50-foot-wide, nine-degree banked sweeper that leads onto the main straight. It is designed to create last-minute overtaking challenges before the race to the finish line. View a map of the East Course.

The West Course is notable for a sequence of three very fast (100-mph-plus) corners that lead to the heaviest-braking and slowest corner on the track, turn W5, whose 45-foot-wide entrance encourages overtaking. The rest of the West Course features several multiple-radius and complex corners designed to challenge drivers' skills. View a map of the West Course.

Miller Motorsports Park's longest configuration, the Full Course, has a character completely different from either of the two shorter layouts. In this 4.5-mile configuration, speeds will be extremely high both at the end of the long main straight and through the daunting sequence of turns that comprise the first elements of the East side of the course, where cornering speeds will approach 150 mph. View a map of the Full Course.

A fourth configuration, the 3.06-mile Perimeter Course (also called the Outer Course), eliminates the entire infield section and is one of the fastest track layouts in North America.

While the track is basically flat, Miller Motorsports Park's design incorporates several significant elevation changes in order to add character, challenge and unparalleled sightlines for spectators. The variety of configurations, each with its own distinct characteristics, enables Miller Motorsports Park to provide challenges for drivers and riders of all skill levels while simultaneously providing exceptional race action for spectators. View a map of the Perimeter Course.

Safety was a major consideration in the design philosophy of Miller Motorsports Park. The circuit provides significant runoff areas, deep gravel traps and ample curbing to allow competitors to race hard, secure in the knowledge that if they make a mistake there is plenty of room for error designed into the circuit. Miller Motorsports Park enjoys a reputation as one of the safest racing facilities in the world.

SPECTATOR FACILITIES

Miller Motorsports Park is unique in that it offers spectators almost 100% sightlines of the entire track from any viewing location, while providing up-close viewing of prime race-action zones. This is possible because of the inherently level nature of the property, which allows spectators to be located around the perimeter of the course while ensuring that the track layout brings major overtaking and action zones close to spectator areas.

Six different spectator areas, known as Oases, are prime viewing areas featuring raised spectator banks, grandstands, restrooms, concessions, catering, nearby parking and other amenities. These Oases are linked by roadways that provide access to each other and to the Paddock and Expo area, and are also connected by pathways that follow the track's perimeter.

PADDOCK FACILITIES

Miller Motorsports Park hit the ground racing in 2006 with what might be the most complete competitor and support facilities of any road course in North America.

On the east side of the property, just off Sheep Lane, competitors arrive at the Main Entrance and register at the Welcome Center, which includes the RaceFannz retail store, the Larry H. Miller Museum and Security Center complex.

After passing through the main gate, competitors see the Maintenance facility, which also houses the Shipping and Receiving office, to the right, as well as a children’s playground and basketball court. Directly ahead are the first of two 40-bay Day Garages, and a full-service Kart Retail and Service Center, adjacent to the Miller Kart Track. To the left, stretching 800 feet along the East Pit Lane, are the 27-bay Formula One-style Grand Prix Garages. Also visible is a feature image of the park: the three-story Race Control Tower.

Further into the 24-acre paved paddock, located close to the main straight, is a combination Medical/Restroom/Concession center. On the north side of the Paddock is a swipe-card-operated gas station, a wash bay and the Team Garage complex. Team Garages are available for rent to teams and individuals on a long-term basis as a location for workshops, car and motorcycle storage, or even as a facility from which to operate a motorsports-related business.

Two additional Race Control buildings serve the West Course and Miller Kart Track.

The Paddock is extensively wired to provide power for a large number of competitors, and has perhaps the largest number of permanent, high-quality restrooms of any race facility in the nation. Wireless Internet access is also available. Additionally, the Paddock has several classrooms and other multiple-use facilities.

CORPORATE AND MEMBER FACILITIES

The most spectacular, and certainly the most significant, building at Miller Motorsports Park is the 22,000-square-foot Club House Building, located on a hill overlooking the final turn before the main straight. This three-story facility offers almost 100% views of the entire track, and sits directly above the sweeping final corner complex. Surrounded by nearly five acres of prime viewing embankment, Club House Members enjoy exceptional viewing, privileged access and exclusive food, service and entertainment opportunities unique in American motorsports.

The Club House Building comprises a members-only main floor with lounge, cafeteria, catering facility, meeting room, restrooms, wireless Internet access, business center and a large open-plan exhibition hall which opens directly onto the viewing banks.

The third-floor Executive Level, complete with an expansive deck, is reserved for Miller Motorsports Park's Executive Club members.

The Miller Motorsports Park Club House is in use year-round, and its members enjoy access to all events as well as the opportunity to participate in a wide range of enthusiast-centered activities. The Club House is also used during the week as the main corporate entertainment center at Miller Motorsports Park.

Easily accessible to all spectators, paddock participants and corporate guests, a large corporate hospitality area is located between the Paddock and the Club House. Guests can also be accommodated in tented suites located on the roof of the Grand Prix Garages.

MILLER KART TRACK

Miller Motorsports Park incorporates one of the most spectacular kart road course facilities in North America. At 0.89 miles, with a main straight approaching 900 feet in length and 30 feet in width, the track is one of the fastest in the nation, yet still has a wide range of different-speed corners. This track's subtle elevation changes and multiple configurations make it perfect for all classes of racing. It is a center for major corporate and rental kart activities and can be used for solo car competition (autocrosses), driver training and manufacturer ride-and-drive activities. Also, it has been designed to serve as a motorcycle riding and race-training course, and incorporates dirt loops for Supermoto action.

The Miller Kart Track is located so that it can operate simultaneously with almost any road course event, and where it serves corporate and spectator needs during major events.
