Auto Racing

Historic Winchester Speedway is located just west of Winchester on Indiana Highway 32.  The speedway is a half-mile mile long paved oval motor racetrack.  It seats 4000 spectators and is known as the "World's Fastest 1/2 mile".

 The track's 37 degree banking is one of the steepest in motor sports.

Two of its races are held in  memory of fallen drivers who won at the circuit: The Rich Vogler Classic, and the Kenny Irwin Memorial.

The Winchester Speedway is a stop on the ARCA tour and has hosted numerous USAC, midget, sprint and USAC Silver Crown events that were televised on ESPN since the 1980s.
