The National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing, known as NASCAR, is an American auto racing sanctioning and operating company best known for stock car racing. The privately owned company was founded by Bill France Sr. in 1948 and is headquartered in Daytona Beach, Florida. Each year it sanctions over 1,500 races at over 100 tracks in 48 US states, as well as in Canada, Mexico, Brazil and Europe. Its racing is organized as a ladder, with the Cup Series at the top, the O'Reilly Auto Parts Series second and the Truck Series third, and smaller series spread out below them. The Cup Series season has 36 points-paying races, along with the preseason Clash and the mid-season All-Star race.
