Phoenix International Raceway has a rich and colorful stock car history. Because the annual Phoenix Nextel Cup race always comes toward the end of the season, there is plenty of drama to be had. Situated in the stunning picturesque Estrella Mountains west of Phoenix, PIR opened back in 1964 as a sleepy little 13,000-seat facility created primarily to host Sprint and Indy Car races. Since those early days, "The Desert Jewel," as PIR is known, has grown to first tier status among NASCAR tracks, accommodating more than 100,000 race fans on race day.
