    • Our policy is that unless we have cancelled or announced a change, everything is on as scheduled.

  • Can I camp at the track?
    • Camping is allowed at the track. All camping is primitive as there are no hook-ups or dump stations. Camping is first-come first served and is almost always free of charge. Generally you will want to camp at the perimeter of the parking lots, and we do ask that you take up only the room you need.
  • What is your pet policy?
    • Trained Service animals are the only animals allowed inside the gates or grandstand areas at Florence Speedway. All animals must be leashed and under their handler’s control at all times. This includes making sure the animal is not out of control, growling, or barking excessively. Handlers must immediately clean up any waste left by their animals. Emotional Support Animals are not considered service animals under the Americans with Disabilities Act, therefore, they are not allowed inside the gate areas or grandstands.
