What we do
First and foremost, Saratoga Speedway is a family entertainment facility,
our aim is to provide good clean safe fun at a reasonable price to our audience and our participants.
For the 2010 season, we have 11 different classes of oval track cars scheduled, as well as drag racing,
special events, monster trucks, motorcycles and auto cross slalom racing. We ensure the racing is
kept fair and clean with a state of the art computerized scoring system that uses transponders mounted on
every race vehicle, and a team of dedicated race officials who love the sport. Our track is a paved 3/8th mile D shaped oval,
with a banked first and second corner, 1/16th mile drag strip, and a 5/8th mile extended course for motorcycles and slalom events.
As a family entertainment facility we do not permit any consumption of alcohol, and we have a large designated no smoking zone in the stands.
Our concessions serve a full selection of food, hot drinks (we even have a cappuccino bar), ice cream, and Coca-Cola products.
