Setting aside the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, does anyone know which NASCAR tracks have individual seats vs. benches?

I haven’t been more than 5 or 6, but it probably all depends on how much you’re willing to spend. At Pocono, for example, seating area is limited to the nearly 3/4 mile front stretch, where there are seatbacks attached to benches toward the finish line ($$) and backless bleacher seating closer to the turns (). At Richmond, [lower bowl](http://www.richmond.com/sports/auto-racing/collection\_269c970c-1720-11e3-a1c8-0019bb30f31a.html) () has benches, [upper levels](http://www.richmond.com/sports/auto-racing/collection_269c970c-1720-11e3-a1c8-0019bb30f31a.html)($$) have individual seats.

Didn’t Daytona change to all (mostly?) individual seats with all the upgrades they did for this year?
