Track Features

2.2-Mile Road Circuit: A thrilling course with numerous turns and an over 3,000-foot straightaway, offering a mix of challenges and high-speed sections for riders.
-
Evolving Layout: The track is constantly improved and offers a balanced experience for both beginners and experienced riders.
A Green Raceway
In 2010, Pocono Raceway became the largest solar-powered sports facility in the world, thanks to its 3-megawatt photovoltaic system. This solar farm spans 25 acres and includes nearly 40,000 solar modules that power the entire track. This system is not only energy-efficient but will help reduce carbon emissions by offsetting 3,100 metric tons of CO2 annually. The solar farm’s impact is significant, and it’s a proud feature of the venue’s commitment to sustainability.
Motorsports Activity
Pocono Raceway is a family-owned and fiercely independent venue with a loyal fan base. It offers ample facilities for motorsports enthusiasts but does not allow motorsport activity in the camping areas to ensure guest safety. Participants can unload their equipment in the Support Garage upon arrival.
