The track was repaved earlier this year and it's still family friendly and as fun as ever to go watch some racing. Great food and people. Go visit Mike's Speed shop for your racing apparel.

I love this place! Very down home feel. Great food trailers. Very patriotic atmosphere. You really bond with your new friends in the stands.

Old school racing on a freshly re-paved track. Family friendly and only 15 dollars at the gate. We had a great time and will definitely be back!
Wake County Speedway, "America's Favorite Bullring," is a quarter-mile asphalt race track located in Raleigh, North Carolina. Founded in 1962 by the Simpkins family, the speedway was a dirt race track until 1987 when the first race on asphalt took place.

The speedway's grandstands have a capacity for 2,000 spectators. Tickets available at the main gate beginning at 6 pm on race nights. The speedway's regular weekly series season generally runs each year on select Friday nights from April through mid-September.
