SPEEDWAY INFO
In an effort to host more races at the Bridgeport Speedway a 1/4-mile speedway was built inside of the 5/8 mile oval. Originally on the backstretch of the 5/8-mile speedway, the new 1/4-mile, now located on the front side of the speedway, allows fans a more up close and personal racing atmosphere. Like its bigger brother the 1/4-mile provides three and four wide racing action in all divisions.
For years the all new “Spirit Auto Center Speedway” was known as the “Bridgeport 1/4 mile” or “the small track at Bridgeport.” We are happy to announce that the 1/4 mile track has partnered with Spirit Auto Center for the next three years to present to the fans, drivers, and race teams the all new Spirit Auto Center Speedway.
It is our desire that the re-branding efforts of the 1/4 mile track will bring Spirit Auto Center to the forefront as a major sponsor for the 1/4 mile track and that we will now have a completely new platform to build and promote the 1/4 mile speedway on.

Parking at the Speedway is free of charge. Handicap Parking spaces exist on the front rows of the main parking lot and in the pit area for participants. These spaces, like most public parking areas, are for handicap individuals ONLY and are available on a first-come, first served basis.
Access to these areas requires a certified handicap placard that is displayed prominently on the vehicle for inspection, and must be assigned to one of the occupants of the vehicle being parked.
Once all marked spaces have been filled, handicap patrons will be allowed to park anywhere within the VIP parking area in space available. Security personnel assigned to monitor marked handicap parking areas will be issuing city citations to those found in violation.
