History or Ransomville Speedway
The original Ransomville Speedway was built behind Ed Ortiz’s service garage during the mid-1950's, in order to keep the kids from racing on village streets. In 1958, the Ransomville Speedway you see now was opened by a group called the Ransomville Slo-Pokes.
During the mid 70’s Stan Friesen purchased the speedway and alongside his family, owned and operated the Ransomville Speedway for 42 seasons.
In December of 2015, the Atwal family purchased the Big R and immediately began plans of renovations, including a new concession stand, new souvenir stand and track office building as well as the brand new jumbo-tron that was installed for the 2016 racing season. In 2018, a new tech barn was built along with concrete pads installed in the pit area. Millings were also laid in the main parking area to aid guests with parking.
2025 will mark the 68th season of operation.
