Dixie Speedway

Dixie Speedway is a 3/8 mile clay oval in Woodstock, Georgia. Located 30 miles north of Downtown Atlanta, the track features over 5,000 permanent seats on a 150-acre property. Opened in 1968, the venue has been owned by Mickey and Martha Swims since 1976. Touring series that visit the speedway include American Flat Track and the Late Model Dirt Series by Lucas Oil. The track also holds a season-opening doubleheader, the Schaeffer's Oil Spring Nationals, in cooperation with nearby Rome Speedway. Dixie Speedway is noted to be the first track where NASCAR Legend Bill Elliot started racing, and is also the site where he won his first race. Dixie Speedway was built long before Woodstock was known as a bustling and growing town like it is today. Dixie Speedway was established in 1969 and for most of its existence has been owned by the Swims family. Laid out over 150 acres, the 3/8 mile red clay dirt track has served millions of fans over its 50-year history. More than a million square feet of event space and a permanent seating capacity of over 5,000, makes Dixie Speedway one of the most flexible event venues in the state of Georgia. Known for its family-friendly atmosphere, Dixie Speedway doesn't permit alcohol sales, adheres to a midnight curfew and at most events children eight and under are admitted free. The track's legacy has been recognized nationwide. Dixie Speedway was ind
