Over the years, Myrtle Beach Speedway has been the training grounds for some of NASCAR’s biggest stars including Dale Earnhardt Jr. (former late model stock car competitor) and Jeff Gordon (former Busch Series track record holder). All four generations of Petty's and all three generations of Earnhardt's have taken a green flag around the .538 mile asphalt oval.
Myrtle Beach Speedway is hands down the best value for the entertainment dollar in town. No where else on the Grand Strand can you watch live racing action and see the future stars of NASCAR every Saturday night. In addition to our weekly racing schedule, we hold several major events during the year including our year ending Seneca 400 weekend in November. |
