Agassiz Speedway

Stock Car Racing is in my Wife's blood, thanks to her Dad and Mom who raced back before they had any kids. With the oldest son in the Family driving, and Dad getting the itch to relive a bit of the past, we all checked out the racing action out at the Agassiz Speedway this past weekend!I didn't have the highest of expectations for the quality of the racing, but once we saw the crazy little 4 cylinder Hornet class ripping it up, my outlook changed considerably. There is a lot of skill to handle a car with 15 other racers on a 1/4 mile track that is only 55ft wide. There was a lot of bumping and close calls, but what impressed most was the quality of the racing and the track. It was like being at a real NASCAR race! Cars blowing fire out of their exhaust, the odd wreck at high speed, and Rednecks everywhere!

It was a blast, and I highly recommend it if you want to have a fun time with the family for cheap, check it out!
