The off-season changes to Senoia Raceway in Senoia, GA have been completed and area stock car drivers will have their first opportunity to test the new configuration on Saturday, February 21.
The new promoter team of Bill Massey, Mayes Massey and Doug Stevens tore down the interior walls in each corner of the 3/8 mile speedway, allowing for better passing lanes and more room to race.
“The track looks great,” said two-time defending Limited Late Model champion Glenn Morris on social media. “I can’t wait to get on it.”
The turns have been widened from 65 to nearly 90 feet and an additional two hundred loads of rich Georgia red clay were mixed into the racing surface. Morris’ excitement is echoed throughout the area’s racing community.
The open practice on Saturday, February 21 will offer a free opportunity for race fans to see the changes to the track and watch the drivers test their skills. Grandstand admission on that day will be free for spectators. Pit passes will be $20. The open practice will begin at 5 pm with all divisions rotating practice time until 9 pm. There will also be a Swap Meet from noon until 4 pm allowing for race teams to clean out the garage. Racers are invited to buy, sell and trade at the Swap Meet with vendor spaces and admission included in the pit pass entry.
Senoia Raceway will also offer a unique opportunity for fans to get behind the wheel or ride in a dirt car the following week. On Friday, February 27, the Kenny Wallace Dirt Racing Experience will be at Senoia Raceway offering several different packages allowing interested parties to either ride with a professional driver or strap in and sling the car sideways themselves.
“This is a great chance for the armchair race car driver to hammer down,” said Mayes Massey. “Who wouldn’t want to sling it sideways at least once in their life. It will give the casual fan a whole new perspective of what our Saturday night drivers face each week.”
