The land upon which Bristol Motor Speedway is built used to be a dairy farm.
Larry Carrier and Carl Moore traveled to Charlotte Motor Speedway in 1960 to watch a race and it was then that they decided to build a speedway in Northeast Tennessee. However, they wanted a smaller model of the Charlotte track, something with a more intimate setting and opted to erect a half-mile facility instead of mirroring the 1.5-mile track.
Work began on what was then called Bristol International Speedway in 1960 and it took approximately one year to finish. Officials scratched many ideas for the track on envelopes and brown paper bags.
The land on which BMS now sits, as well as construction of the track, cost approximately $600,000. The entire layout for BMS covered 100 acres and provided parking for more than 12,000 cars. The track itself was a perfect half-mile, measuring 60 feet wide on the straightaways, 75 feet wide in the turns and the turns were banked at 22 degrees.
Seating capacity for the very first NASCAR race at BMS, held on July 30, 1961, was 18,000. Prior to this race, the speedway had hosted weekly races. The first driver on the track for practice on July 27, 1961, was Tiny Lund in his Pontiac. The second driver out was David Pearson. Fred Lorenzen won the pole for the first race at BMS with a speed of 79.225 mph.
Atlanta's Jack Smith won the inaugural event, The Volunteer 500, at BMS on July 30, 1961.
In the fall of 1969 BMS was reshaped and remeasured. The turns were banked at 36 degrees and it became a .533-mile oval.
The speedway was sold after the 1976 season to Lanny Hester and Gary Baker. In the spring of 1978, the track name was changed to Bristol International Raceway. In August of that year, the first night race was held on the oval.
On July 6, 1983, Warner Hodgdon completed 100 percent purchase of Bristol Motor Speedway. Hodgdon named Larry Carrier as the track's general manager. On Jan. 11, 1985, Warner Hodgdon filed for bankruptcy.
Larry Carrier formally took possession of the speedway and covered all outstanding debts.
In August 1992, BMS became the first fully concrete speedway to host a Cup event.
On Jan. 22, 1996, Larry Carrier sold the speedway to Bruton Smith at a purchase price of $26 million. At the time of the sale, the facility seated 71,000.
On May 28, 1996, the track's name was officially changed to Bristol Motor Speedway. By August of that year, 15,000 seats had been added bringing the seating capacity to 86,000.
For the August 1998 Goody's 500 the speedway featured more than 131,000 grandstand seats and 100 skyboxes. On Aug. 26, 2002, work began on the most ambitious construction project since Speedway Motorsports Inc., purchased BMS in 1996. The new backstretch increased the venue's seating capacity to more than 160,000.

Busch grabs spot in record books with sweep
First driver to win in three national events in same week
BRISTOL, Tenn. -- Check off a major accomplishment from Kyle Busch's bucket list.
Busch fended off strong challenges from David Reutimann and Jamie McMurray to win Saturday's Irwin Tools Night Race at Bristol Motor Speedway and complete his unprecedented sweep of three NASCAR national touring events at the same track in the same week.
Get your Kyle Busch gear!
On Lap 429 of 500, Busch nosed past Reutimann after an intense 15-lap battle and pulled away to a Cup Series victory that fit quite nicely with his win Wednesday in the Truck Series and his triumph Friday in the Nationwide Series.
"Oh, Dave, thank you, guys," Busch radioed to crew chief Dave Rogers moments before crossing the finish line. "I can't believe it -- swept the weekend at Bristol!"
The accomplishment awed even those on his team. "We're in the presence of greatness," spotter Eddie D'Hondt radioed as he guided Busch toward the white flag.
Rogers echoed that sentiment after the race, during an evening that began with Brad Keselowski announcing "Kyle Busch is [a butt]" during driver introductions, a reference to an on-track altercation between the drivers [in the Nationwide race].
"Kyle Busch is a special driver, in my opinion, the most talented driver on the circuit," Rogers said. "I told him before the race there's a lot of fans out there booing him, and some wise guy saying some things that were somewhat unprofessional, but it's an absolute honor to work with Kyle Busch, and I couldn't be happier to do so."
The victory was Busch's fourth at the .533-mile track, his third of the season and the 19th of his career. McMurray came home third, followed by Clint Bowyer and Kasey Kahne. Jeff Gordon finished 11th and became the second driver to clinch a spot in the Chase.
It was a statement race for Bowyer, who separated himself from Mark Martin in the battle for the final berth in the Chase. Bowyer overcame a pit road speeding penalty to finish in the top five, while Martin struggled to a 23rd-place result in a car that didn't handle to his liking.
With two races left before the Chase field is set Sept. 11 at Richmond, Bowyer, 12th in the standings, leads McMurray, who supplanted Martin in 13th place, by 100 points. Martin is 14th, 101 points back.
McMurray passed Busch for the lead on Lap 389 but surrendered it when both drivers came to the pits under green on Lap 400.
"It's pretty remarkable what he's been able to do this weekend, especially with owning his own truck team -- I know that's been fairly stressful for him," McMurray said. "And, obviously, the Nationwide, it's -- I don't know -- it's amazing how many races they can win in that car.
"But then to be able to come out [Saturday] and win again, he obviously has a really good feel for this place, and he just had a really good weekend. He's been close to doing that before, so that's really impressive what Kyle has been able to do."
The two drivers who are guaranteed at least a tie for top seeding when the Chase begins -- Jimmie Johnson and Denny Hamlin -- had major issues in Saturday's race.
After leading 175 laps, Johnson was fighting for position on Lap 262 when contact from Juan Montoya's Chevrolet sent Johnson's Chevy spinning down the backstretch and into the Turn 3 wall. The pole-sitter lost 66 laps during repairs and finished 35th.
"Dude, I left him room," Johnson radioed after the wreck. "What the hell?"
Hamlin snapped a drive shaft near the midpoint of the race and lost 26 laps in the garage while his crew replaced it. Hamlin finished 34th. The only consolation for Johnson and Hamlin is each has a series-best five victories, good for 50 bonus points to start the Chase.
