For generations, Wilmot Raceway has been a cornerstone of dirt track racing in southeastern Wisconsin. Located in Wilmot, just minutes from the Illinois border, our 3/8-mile clay, semi-banked oval has built a reputation for close racing, passionate fans, and unforgettable Saturday nights.
A Tradition of Dirt Track Racing
Since opening in 1951, Wilmot Raceway has welcomed racers and fans who share a love for grassroots motorsports. What started as a local racing venue has grown into a track known throughout the Midwest, hosting everything from weekly programs to nationally recognized touring series. Through decades of change, one thing has remained constant: a commitment to great racing and a great fan experience. Wilmot Raceway is known to be the birth place of the Bumper to Bumper IRA Sprint Car Series and Wisconsin WingLess Sprint Series.
The Track & Facilities
Wilmot Raceway features a 3/8-mile clay, semi-banked oval, designed to produce exciting competition. The track regularly showcases sprint cars, modifieds, street stocks, and other popular divisions, delivering action-packed racing that keeps fans on their feet from green flag to checkered. The grandstands received a revamp in 2023 and boast a capacity of over 4,000 seats with ADA-Accessible Seating. That same year, Wilmot Raceway expanded the fan experience with the addition of an 112 spot on-site campground, allowing race fans to stay right at the track and enjoy a full weekend of racing.
