\u201cThe speedway is a major attraction in West Volusia,\u201d said Georgia Turner, West Volusia Tourism executive director. \u201cWe\u2019re very excited to be the preferred travel partner of the track. Now that the speedway has year-round events, it is terrific for tourism in our area.<\/p>\n
\u201cSummer is a slower time for us, so it has been great to have the Father\u2019s Day weekend, the Back to School Night, the Summer Sizzler, all the different things that happen to bring people to West Volusia during times when things might be a little slower.\u201d<\/p>\n
The speedway still has several big events for the 2024 season before kicking off 2025 in January with the DIRTcar Sunshine Nationals (Jan. 22-25) and the start of the Federated Auto Parts DIRTcar Nationals (Jan. 30-Feb. 15) \u2013 now a week earlier with the addition of the American Sprint Car Series National Tour.<\/p>\n
Before then, the dirt track still has the Labor Day Classic (Saturday, Aug. 31), a weekly racing event (Saturday, Sept. 14), the Halloween Spooktacular (Saturday, Oct. 26), Points Championship Finale (Saturday, Nov. 16) and the 11th Annual Emil and Dale Reutimann Memorial, featuring the best DIRTcar Modified drivers in the country (Thurs.-Sat., Nov. 21-23).<\/p>\n
\u201cThe speedway is doing a lot of creative events like the Halloween Spooktacular and our Volusia County Night. We\u2019re partnering with them to bring tourism professionals out to the track,\u201d Turner said. \u201cIt\u2019s a major part of what we do here in Volusia County. We\u2019re very glad to have our own track \u2013\u00a0and that\u2019s always our saying, we call it \u2018our speedway.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
West Volusia Tourism and Volusia Speedway Park have been working together since 2022, bringing new vibes to \u201cold Florida.\u201d<\/p>\n
