The Barrie Speedway is a 1/3 mile tri-oval racing track located in Oro-Medonte, Ontario, Canada, north of Barrie. It is a member of the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series for the Ontario Provincial and continental championships, and hosts a NASCAR Canadian Tire Series race, with D. J. Kennington winning the 2007 NCATS race, Scott Steckly in 2008, Don Thomson, Jr. in 2009, and D. J. Kennington winning again in 2010.

Barrie has three home divisions: Late Models, Thunder Cars and Pure Stocks. Other touring series are hosted throughout the season, including the Ontario Legends Series, TQ midgets, and OSCAAR.

The track underwent major upgrades in 2004 which included upgrades to seating, pits and a full resurfacing and partial reconfiguration of the racing surface into its present short track tri-oval.
