About Daylesford Speedway
Daylesford Speedway is a beautifully positioned spectator dirt-oval venue tucked into the bush of central Victoria — one of the state's longest continuously operating dirt speedways, with roots going back decades. You come to watch rather than drive, and the combination of a hardworking volunteer crew, a warm community atmosphere and remarkably affordable food and drinks makes it one of the most enjoyable country motorsport nights in Victoria. Race days run a varied program of Street Stocks, A and B Modifieds, Standard Saloons, Juniors and assorted VSC classes, plus the odd novelty event. People who visit once tend to come back, drawn as much by the scenic setting and the community as by the racing itself.
