Description of Michigan International Speedway Map

Two traffic maps are shown for the Michigan International Speedway, one for Inbound Traffic on Sunday Only and one for Outbound Traffic on Sunday Only.

The Inbound Traffic map states that the pattern goes into effect at 6:00 a.m. The Outbound Traffic Map states that the pattern goes into effect with 50 laps remaining.

The map states that traffic patterns are subject to change.

Inbound traffic is directed as following:

Southbound: M-50 will become two lanes south at Wamplers Lake Rd. (M-124). All M-50 traffic will enter the M-50 gate and use the eastside parking lots. Race traffic will not be allowed to continue southbound past the M-50 entrance.

Northbound: M-50 traffic will be directed west onto U.S. 12 and must use Gate 8. Race traffic will not be allowed to continue northbound on M-50 past U.S. 12.
