Texas Motor Speedway Weather: North Texas Intermediate Oval

By Kevin Roth, sports meteorologist. Weather guide for DFS players and bettors.

Overview

Texas is a 1.5-mile intermediate oval in Fort Worth. The reconfigured surface produces high-line racing. Spring and playoff races.

Weather angle

North Texas heat and thunderstorm risk are the primary weather concerns. Spring races can see severe-weather-driven delays. Summer heat pushes track temperatures high, affecting tire wear.

For DFS and bettors

Heat and radar risk are the primary handicaps. Wet conditions force rain delays on the paved oval; no wet racing at Texas.
