75 Years of Racing at Langley Speedway |
|
|
In the late 1940’s, Dude Ranch was an 8/10th-mile oval for horse racing. The owners occasionally hosted stock car races, which generally attracted more fans than the horses ever had. Savvy ownership & renovation has since turned that dirt track into one of NASCAR’s best weekly tracks. Since its modest opening in 1950, Langley Speedway has become one of the top short tracks in the country. |
| |
|
It now welcomes fans of all ages to cheer on local drivers and some of stock car racing's biggest names like Richard Petty, Jimmie Johnson, Chase Elliott, Denny Hamlin, and Dale Earnhardt Jr.
See the 2025 schedule to plan your visit around the next big race! |
