This is the NASCAR Air Titan track drying system while it was being tested at Daytona International Speedway. The system utilizes compressed air and will dramatically reduce the amount of time it takes to dry the track.
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (Feb. 12, 2013) – Less than eight months
ago, NASCAR Chairman and CEO Brian France tasked the team at the NASCAR Research and Development Center in Concord, N.C., with developing a means to shorten the delay caused by rain.
The reasons for the initiative were many, but at the top of the list: Fans, whether in the grandstands or watching on television, should not have to wait long before racing resumes following a downpour.
NASCAR announced today Phase 1 of France’s dvision, introducing the Air Titan™ track drying system that will debut during Speedweeks at Daytona International Speedway. This innovative technology, steeped in science and created by the NASCAR R&D Center, will reduce track drying time, improve the racing product and enhance the fan experience – starting this week and including The Sprint Unlimited on Saturday night at 8p.m. ET on FOX.
