A story from the Associated Press examines what differences have been made at Iowa Speedway since the last time NASCAR was there.
“I walked out here and I felt like it was a lot bigger than I remembered,” said Ricky Stenhouse Jr., who won three Xfinity Series races here. “I felt like it was a pretty small short track, but obviously you get going pretty quick here.”
This will be the first time the Cup Series races at the track, which seems impressive considering at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic it looked like the track might close for good.
Thanks to the IndyCar Series hosting doubleheaders in 2022 and 2023 to boost the track’s popularity, they are expecting around 40,000 fans for Sunday’s race. Additionally, the racetrack has been repaved since the last time NASCAR was there.
“It’s still Iowa, but it’s not the same Iowa,” said Chase Briscoe, who won the last Xfinity Series race at the track in 2019. “I miss the old Iowa.”
