As we get ever so close to the first laps of the 2023 season at Tulsa Speedway. We wanted to talk about the track surface. After we moved the wall during the chili bowl. The next process was re-shaping the corners for the exit off turn 2 and entry to turn 3. Once on the track with equipment and got started we found that the foundation under the clay wasn't ideal. Clay at both ends of track were removed and pushed onto straights. We cleaned out around 18"-24" of...more

To stand at the top of the grandstands and gaze at Bloomington Speedway from every angle is akin to a visit to some of this nation’s greatest sports venues. There is a timeless quality to the old plant punctuated by the red clay, the beautifully manicured infield, and the stately tree which has stood vigil over the first turn for decades. No one need tell you that legends have performed here. You can feel it. On a cold and quiet winter day, when no one else is near,...more

Sebastopol, California lies fifty-five miles north of San Francisco amid some of the most beautiful territory in this Nation. Yet, for Geoff Ensign the desire to take his sprint car career up a notch led him to pack up and move to Indiana. His wife Shayna was behind the decision as well. She was in love with the sport too, and had every intention of doing more than watching from the pit grandstands. The truth is both Ensign’s were lucky to be able to race at all. The...more

Due to the heavy rain, we have received over the last month and the rain still coming, we have no other choice but to cancel our March 25th race including the USAC/CRA 410’s, 410 Winged Sprint Cars and 360 Winged Sprint Cars. Against our best efforts to try and get the season underway the rain has made it impossible. Also, due to the heavy rain fall the fairgrounds are being used as an evacuation site for those in Tulare and Kings County affected by the flooding. We...more

Bloomington, Indiana was a vastly different place at the start of the roaring 1920s. The city boasted a population of roughly 11,500 inhabitants and Indiana University was bursting at the seams with 2,356 enrollees. By the time Bloomington Speedway came alive in nearby Clear Creek the Christian Church had been welcoming worshippers for over eighty years and the post office had already celebrated a Golden Anniversary. Because of the nearby quarries the Indiana Stone...more

For Jordan Wever winning his second Indiana UMP modified title in 2022 was satisfying but the real cherry on top was snaring track championships at Bloomington and Brownstown. This was personal. Wever was raised within a stone’s throw of Bloomington Speedway. He attended Clear Creek Elementary and would eventually graduate from Bloomington South High School. One thing is for certain, he also got an education outside of the classroom. “I can remember being in race...more
