Abstract

The article focuses on the $40 million newly repaved Las Vegas Motor Speedway racetrack in Las Vegas, Nevada, which will be hosting the annual NASCAR Nextel Cup Series UAW-Daimler Chrysler 400 automobile race to be held in March 2006. Track owner Speedway Motorsports Inc. hired contractor Las Vegas Paving to change the banking of the track in order to increase speeds and bring more excitement to races. Asphalt paving machines were modified with attachments in order to be kept on the sloping banks.
