A Little History… Oglethorpe Speedway Park celebrates it's 59th Anniversary in 2010. The half mile speedway has entertained race fans since March of 1951 when championship motorcycle racing debuted in Savannah.  The first stock car race took place at the historic half mile in May of 1951. Johnnie Parsons was the first winner.  Parsons was the defending Indy 500 winner that year. The tradition of championship racing in a family oriented facility lives on as Oglethorpe Speedway Park runs weekly racing events on Friday nights at 8:00pm.  Late Models, Street Stocks, Mini Stocks, Pure Stocks and 440s make up the weekly schedule.
