Myrtle Beach Speedway

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Myrtle Beach Speedway, originally named Rambi Raceway, was built in 1958 and is located on US 501 in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

The speedway is a .538 mile semi-banked asphaltic oval track. The NASCAR Busch Series (now the Nationwide Series) raced at Myrtle Beach Speedway from 1988 to 2000.

Currently the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series race on Saturday nights from April until November. The track also runs various other classes of racing including Late Model Super Trucks, Pro 4 Modifieds and Street Stocks. It is also the "home" track of the Loris-based USAR organization, host of the Hooters ProCup Series.

NASCAR's new testing ban on active national and regional series tracks may make the D-shaped oval popular for testing, as it is close enough for NASCAR teams to use as a testing venue as none of the four series in question race there.
