Pocono Raceway has a unique design. Each turn is modeled after turns at 3 different tracks. Turn One was modeled after the now defunct Trenton Speedway, Turn Two is like Indianapolis Motor Speedway and Turn 3 is similar to The Milwaukee Mile. It could be said to be a tri-oval, but the turns are much more severe than those of a more typical tri-oval such as Daytona and the track is really nearly a triangle. They have been likened somewhat to the hairpin-style turns of road courses. An additional complication is that none of the three turns are identical, nor are any of the three straights identical in length. The long frontstrech often requires a gear change due to the high RPMs attained. The banking of each turn is considerably less than on many other long ovals. Although the track is long (2.5 miles) the sharp nature of the turns tends to make the overall speeds much lower than at other tracks of similar lengths thus restrictor plates are not needed here.\n\nThe odd design makes the setup of the car and the crews' ability to make chassis adjustments even more crucial here than at many other tracks. Often it is the difference between a winning performance and near-disaster. Drivers tend to either love the track or hate it, largely depending on how well it suits their driving style and their crews' abilities

Stone Mountain always has a HUGE display.  And even more HUGE crowd.  If you go, plan to get there VERY early.  I cannot place enough emphsis on the huge crowd part.  I went one year, a few years ago, went to the Varsity for takeouts, and got on the road about 5:30PM.  Never made it to the park, and watched from a parking lot miles and miles away, along with 1000's of others all over the place.

In my neck of the woods (NW corner of the state) there are a couple of smaller tracks that are pretty good. One is located one mile south on Hwy 247 from the intersection of Hwy 72 in Colbert county near Cherokee. The other is located at Moulton in Lawrence county. If I remember correctly, they usually run one or two weekends a month from the early spring until late fall. There is another one in Columbus MS that is really good also. Races consist mostly of local area guys but occasionally there will be an event that brings in the open wheel cars and other big name racers with high dollar cars.
