Wayne County Speedway

With Wayne County Speedway’s grounds already wet, Friday afternoon into evening showers soaked it the more and made the conditions of the 3/8 dirt mile oval to wet to work into shape and be raceable for good and safe racing for Saturday nights scheduled racing, so for the second week in a row, Orrville’s Historic Oval will sit and wait until next Saturday night.

Heavy rain and storms that started on Wednesday and continued on and off through Friday night and Saturday morning that totaled between 5 to 8 inches of rain in the Wayne County area, drenched the grounds of Orrville’s Historic Oval, plus more storms predicted for Saturday afternoon, forced track owner Jason Flory to cancel the scheduled 2026 season opener.

Wayne County Speedway’s opening night is set for Saturday night, April 4th with a season long schedule of activity through October. Opening night will have the Pine Tree Towing & Recovery 410 Sprints, the Malcuit Tavern Super Late Models, the Flynn’s Tire and Auto Modifieds, the Canton Glass House Super Stocks and the JoyRide Transport Sport Compacts as those classes will be racing for the O’Reilly’s Auto Parts ‘Race to the Championship’ points during the season.
