}} Template:Infobox motorsport venue Douglas County Speedway is a Template:Convert/mile asphalt-paved motorsport race track in the United States. The track is part of the Douglas County Fairgrounds, located right off of Interstate 5 in Roseburg, Oregon.
It mostly hosts late model racing, modified racing, and other local-level racing events throughout the year, which are held on a weekly basis on Saturdays from May through September.[1] The track is also used for rodeo and monster truck events.[2] The biggest event the track has hosted is the ARCA Menards Series West (formerly the NASCAR K&N Pro Series West), which has held 17 races at the track. The first was in 1966, and the most recent was in 2020.
Due to its small size, the infield is empty (only a patch of grass) and pit road is located outside the track behind the backstretch. The entrance to pit road is located in turn 2, with the exit back onto the track in turn 3.
Track history
Events
NASCAR
Douglas County Speedway hosted the NASCAR/ARCA West Series on three separate stints. The first was from 1966 to 1971, although there was no race there in 1967 and 1970. The second was from 2002 to 2010, and the most recent was from 2016 to 2020. The track was removed from the West Series schedule in 2021, partly due to the fact that the schedule was condensed from 11 races to 9.
