Winchester 400

The Winchester 400 is a 400-lap short-track held each fall at the Winchester Speedway, approximately 90 miles (145 km) east of Indianapolis, Indiana. Held annually since 1970, the race has served as a launching point for the careers of several young drivers including former winners Rusty Wallace, Mark Martin, Mike Eddy, and Ted Musgrave. The Winchester 400 started off as an American Speed Association event, but was taken over by NASCAR in 1992. Presented by CSX and Play It Safe, the 45th running will be contested on Sunday, October 9, 2016 and will feature the stars of the CRA Super Series. Early entrants for the 2016 running include Cody Coughlin, William Byron and Christopher Bell.

Billed as the "World's Fastest 1/2 mile", Winchester Speedway is a half-mile long paved oval motor racetrack in Winchester, Indiana. The track's 37 degree banking are some of the steepest in motorsports and the reason for the high speeds. The track has permanent seating for approximately 4000 spectators.
