The construction of the track began in April 1955. The natural topography of the Kettle Moraine area was utilized for the track, which sweeps over the tops of rolling hills and plunges down through bottom land then up the steep narrow ravine known as Thunder Valley. The track is 4.048 miles in length with 14 turns. Except for recent re-modeling work on Turn 1 that changed it very slightly, the track is the same today as when it was first laid out. Sebring International Raceway is a road course auto racing facility in the southeastern United States, located near Sebring, Florida. Sebring (pronounced sea-bring) Raceway is one of the oldest continuously operating race tracks in the U.S., its first race being run in 1950.
