Ventura Raceway
Ventura Raceway is a world-famous dirt track located at the Ventura County Fairgrounds. Ventura Raceway became world famous in the early 1990s when it hosted several years of the ESPN Thunder Series on television.
With weekly racing events held on most Saturday nights from March through October, Ventura Raceway has a worldwide following of short track racing fans. Most Saturday nights you can find the powerful VRA 360 Sprint Cars racing at the 1/5 mile oval. These 600+ horsepower, open wheel racers hit speeds in excess of 80 mph on the track that is smaller than a high school oval track.
Beyond the sprint cars, there are classes for seniors (age 45 and up) down to kids as young as 5 years old in a family friendly environment.
Located at 10 West Harbor Blvd, Ventura. Admission (as of January 2019) is $15 for adults, $11 for 60+, military and students with ID and free to 12 and under (with adult). Visit www.venturaraceway.com or call 805.648.RACE for more information.
