It was the first race held at the new Charlotte Motor Speedway. At 600 miles, it is the longest race on NASCAR's timetable and was initially called the World 600.

Charlotte Motor Speedway is 1.5 miles long. It takes 400 laps to finish the 600-mile race. The race is split into four stages of 100 laps each, which accounts for 600 miles.

The race is run around the same time as the Indianapolis 500 of IndyCar. A few drivers even perform Double Duty, contending in the two iconic races.
