About the Track: Grand Bend Speedway is a NASCAR-sanctioned 1/4 mile paved Tri-Oval race track. Originally built in 1996 for small-scale vehicles it was later expanded into the track of today which can accommodate both half-size development series as well as full-size race cars in addition to its daily Go Kart and racing experience attractions that run during the summer. The track is located just outside the town of Grand Bend next door to the Grand Bend Motorplex facility.

Due to the incoming rainy forecast we have decided to cancel the Race Event for this Saturday August 17th. The BRAD CLARKE MEMORIAL has been Rescheduled for Sunday September 1st, with a new start time of 5:00pm.

Saturday’s event is the Brad Clarke Memorial held in memory of the former track promoter of Grand Bend Speedway and builder of countless vehicles in the development series.  Clarke passed away in January 2022.  Since 1997 Clarke dedicated himself to the promotion of racing programs for young people in the region by designing, building, and repairing the 1/2-scale racing vehicles. He became promoter of the Junior Canadian Auto Racing (JCAR) series and later became track promoter at Grand Bend Speedway.

Special to the racing lineup is the SOMA (Southern Ontario Modified Association) drivers returning to the track.  The show-starter Junior Sprints will hit the track at 6:30 pm with NASCAR Advance Auto Parts Weekly Series racing from the Huron Taxi Service Late Models, Mini Trucks, Doxtator Property Maintenance Bone Stocks, and 9HP Sprints set for their signature double features format starting at 7:00 pm.
