===Auto Club Speedway=== [[File:FONTANA2021.jpg|thumb|View of the Auto Club Speedway just outside Fontana (2021)]] [[Auto Club Speedway]], was a racetrack that played host to the [[NASCAR Cup Series]] and [[Xfinity Series]], along with former [[IndyCar Series]] events. It is located in an unincorporated area just outside of Fontana. It is built on the former site of the [[Kaiser Steel]] mill. The large smelting furnaces of the mill were sold to China, and the rest remains a working steel mill operated by [[California Steel Industries]], which is owned by the Japanese company [[JFE Holdings|JFE Steel Corporation]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.jfe-holdings.co.jp/en/company/g-about/index.html |title=JFE holdings csi info |publisher=Jfe-holdings.co.jp |access-date=December 22, 2010}}</ref> The track is currently transforming from a 2-mile oval into a 0.5 mile long short track that is similar in style to the [[Bristol Motor Speedway]].
