Dixie Speedway, 3/8 mile clay oval in Woodstock, Georgia
Dixie Speedway is a motorsport facility in Woodstock, Georgia, featuring a 3/8 mile dirt oval track spread across more than 150 acres. The site offers over one million square feet of event space and can accommodate more than 5,000 spectators, making it a versatile venue for various activities.
The speedway opened in 1969 and is one of Georgia's oldest family-owned businesses. Since its founding, it has grown into a significant motorsport venue and was later inducted into the Georgia Racing Hall of Fame and the National Dirt Racing Hall of Fame.
The speedway has been a gathering place for the local community for more than fifty years, where families and fans come together regularly. The energy of visitors who appreciate the roar of engines and the thrill of watching drivers compete shapes the character of the place.
The facility sits between two major highways, I-575 and I-75, and is easy to reach by car, about 25 miles north of Atlanta. Free grandstand seating is available at opening races, and children under five enter at no cost.
The venue served as a filming location for productions like the film 'Six Pack' with Kenny Rogers and the series 'Ozark'. Special events like Waterless Boat Races take place here, where boats race without water and draw large crowds.
