The following tables list all of the tracks previously used by NASCAR that are either closed or, for various reasons, are no longer used by any NASCAR national series.
Formerly known as Strictly Stock (1949), Grand National (1950 to 1971), Winston Cup (1972 to 2003), and Nextel Cup (2004 to 2007). This table lists every track that once hosted a Sprint Cup event. Note that Air Base Speedway in Greenville, South Carolina, should be added to this list, as it held the NASCAR GN race on August 25, 1951,[6] instead of the Greenville-Pickens Speedway as had previously been reported.[1][7]
