The Carlisle Motorsport Complex, formerly known as The Toddring, is a combination 3-mile tri-oval superspeedway and road course near Carlisle, England. It is known for its high amount of banking: 33 degrees in the corners. It has hosted Dash Cup events every year since 1999. This track seen what was formerly the closest finish in Dash Cup history; a 0.03 second margin between Carla Rosinski and Ben Tremblay in 2009 until the record was broken during the 2014 All-Star race at New York Autoring; a 0.001 margin.

The Toddring was named after British touring car legend (and former Dash Cup commentator) Todd Benatar who won consistently in the infield road course (when it was named Carlisle Motorsport Complex). The infield road course was used in 2015 and the ill-fated Tourers series in 2016.

The track will revert to its prior name following the 2018 season.
