In 1959, Daytona Speed was added to the NASCAR racing circuit and introduced 31° banked curves for racing. This allowed stock cars to reach much higher speeds (around 200 mph) during a race. Today the steepest banked curves are found at Talladega Motor Speed Way at 33° with a turn radius of 1100 ft. The flattest track in NASCAR is Hew Hampshire Motor Speed Way with banked curves of 7° with a turn radius of 410 ft. a) Assuming no friction, what are the max speeds (in mph) without slipping toward the outer edge of the track at the Talladega and NH Motor Speedways? b) With friction (assume μs of 1.1 between the tires and the track)?
