Course Profile
MP Pocono is a 2.5-mile intermediate speedway with 3 corners and a 65 MPH speed limit on pit road. The league competed at MP Pocono for the first time during the 2003 season. Since its league debut, the track has hosted 22 races in 3 series. As a long intermediate speedway, MP Pocono features large straightaways and high speeds. Unlike most ovals, the course does not have aprons for entering or exiting pit road. Instead, when pitting, drivers must move left, slow to a safe speed, and enter pit road after clearing the final turn. When exiting, drivers can merge right onto the track but must remain left until reaching turn 1. Often times, drivers forget to remain left after merging and this is a frequent source of penalties.
