Cayuga Speedway

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Cayuga Speedway, also known as the Cayuga 2000 Speedway is a racing track located near Cayuga in Haldimand County. It opened in 1966 and is considered to be one of Canada's premier racing facilities. It is a fastest 5/8 mile oval and hosts the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series, among other series.

Set on 300 acres of land, Cayuga offers campgrounds with hydro, concession booths, and free parking. In addition to racing, there are also occasional concerts held at the facility.

On June 8 2006, a group of developers from Toronto recently purchased the 5/8 mile track from its original owners and made improvements for the 2007 season, hoping to attract NASCAR Busch Series races (which chose Montreal instead). Cooper Construction of Oakville was announced as the vendor to re-build the track. (Source: Simcoe Reformer)
