New Smyrna Speedway

New Smyrna Speedway (NSS) is a high-banked, half-mile paved oval located just five miles west of New Smyrna Beach, FL and only 12 miles from Daytona International Speedway. NSS has been home to some of the finest and most thrilling stock car racing in the entire county for over 50 years.

NSS opened in 1967 as a dirt track but was paved only six months later to begin hosting the World Series of Stock Car, nine nights of intense stock car racing during Daytona International Speedway/NASCAR Speedweeks. Over the half-century that NSS has operated, the track has welcomed numerous famous NASCAR drivers, such as Richie Evans; Donnie, Bobby and Davey Allison; Neil Bonnett; Harry Gant; Tony Stewart; Kyle Busch; Ryan Newman and many others. NSS also welcomes up-and-coming stars like Harrison Burton, Todd Gilliland and many others.  

NSS is a proud NASCAR Whelen All-American Series track, hosting weekly NASCAR grassroots racing from March through October. NSS also play host to numerous special events throughout the years – such as the Red Eye 100 in January, the World Series of Asphalt Stock Car Racing in February, the Fourth of July’s Clyde Hart Memorial, the Florida Governor’s Cup in October and much more. NSS also hosts the NASCAR K&N Pro Series during the World Series of Asphalt Stock Car Racing.

As a small-town, local venue, NSS is heavily involved in the community by welcoming in local organizations like local schools, boosters, sports teams, and other charitable organizations. NSS’s owners also created the Hart to Heart Breast Cancer Foundation at New Smyrna Speedway.
