The track's 180-acre (73 ha) infield includes the 29-acre (12 ha) Lake Lloyd, which has hosted powerboat racing. The track was built in 1959 by NASCAR founder William "Bill" France Sr. to host racing that was held at the former Daytona Beach Road Course. His banked design permitted higher speeds and gave fans a better view of the cars.

The venue describes itself as the "World Center of Racing".Lights were installed around the track in 1998, and today it is the third-largest single-lit outdoor sports facility.

The project was finished before the start of Speedweeks in 2016.
