Welcome to La Crosse Fairgrounds Speedway, the Coulee Region’s home for NASCAR-sanctioned short track racing since 1957. Located on the fairgrounds in West Salem, Wisconsin, just minutes from La Crosse, our 5/8-mile asphalt oval has been one of the premier short tracks in the Midwest for nearly seven decades.
From May through October, La Crosse Speedway delivers some of the best Saturday night racing in Wisconsin. Weekly programs feature Kwik Trip NASCAR Late Models, AB Seed & Consulting NASCAR Sportsmen, Skyline Fireworks NASCAR Hornets, and the Auto Value Street Stocks, Six Shooters, and Mini Vans — plus visiting series, the High School Racing Association (HSRA), and fan-favorite novelty races. On weeknights, the Thursday Night Street Drags light up our 300-foot drag strip.

Kids 5 and under are always free, and special events like SMASH-O-RAMA monster trucks, the Kwik Trip Fireworks Spectacular, and our season-ending Oktoberfest Race Weekend make La Crosse Speedway a must-visit all summer long.
