Georgetown Speedway, tor wyścigowy (Stany Zjednoczone)
Georgetown Speedway is a racing track in Delaware featuring a half-mile oval clay surface designed for fast racing and competitive events. The facility includes grandstands for spectators, a large pit area for team work, parking, and space for overnight camping during race weekends.
Founded in 1949 by businessman Melvin L. Joseph, the speedway became an important site in American stock car racing history. After closing for a period, it reopened in 2006 and has since been revitalized under new management starting in 2016 with improved facilities and diverse racing classes.
The speedway serves as a gathering place for the local racing community, where families and enthusiasts come together on race nights to share in the excitement. The venue reflects how motorsport is woven into daily life here, with drivers and fans viewing it as more than just a track but as a hub for local tradition.
The speedway is easily accessible by car with ample parking available nearby. Most races take place in the evenings or on weekends during clear weather, making it convenient for visitors to plan their trips ahead of time.
The speedway attracts visitors from nearby Maryland and New Jersey, particularly those taking the ferry from Cape May to Lewes. This geographic position makes it a popular destination for racing fans exploring the region and incorporating race weekends into their travel plans.
