Get the movie realmug. The paved portion of a racetrack on the extreme inside. Analogous to a highway shoulder, the apron often flattens out considerably -- a marked transition from the banking of the actual racing grooves. Daring or desperate drivers sometimes use the apron to pass, or to compensate for a tight condition in their racecars and get them to turn. However, the abrupt transition of the apron can also snap a car loose and force a spin.
Dale Earnhardt, Jr., has spun coming out of turn four. A tire might have gone down, or else he went so low onto the apron, he snapped loose.
