Toledo Speedway

Nestled on Benore Road just minutes from downtown Toledo, Toledo Speedway is a half‑mile, high‑banked oval that has been the heart of Ohio short‑track racing since 1960. The venue hosts weekly ARCA Menards Series Late Model races, the iconic Shore Lunch 200, and the prestigious Silver Crown series, drawing drivers like Swanson and Jesse Love who chase championships on its gritty surface. Fans enjoy a classic grandstand experience with a modern sound system, LED‑lit pit lanes, and a family‑friendly atmosphere that includes a kids’ play zone and a wide selection of local fare from Tony Packo’s famous hot dogs and sandwiches. Race weekends typically start Friday evenings with practice sessions, peak Saturday night races, and Sunday qualifiers, while ticket prices range from $10 for general admission to $30 for premium grandstand seats. The venue’s open‑air concourse offers panoramic views of the action, and the historic “Wave the Green Flag” ceremony honors Toledo’s racing heritage. With a 4‑star rating on Google and over 600 reviews, visitors praise the fast‑paced competition, friendly staff, and the nostalgic smell of gasoline mixed with fresh popcorn. Parking is ample on‑site, and the Speedway is easily reachable via I‑75 or the nearby Toledo Metro.
