Message from Murray County Speedway

We would like to thank the Murray County Commissioners and Justin Hoffman, the City of Slayton and it's residents for allowing us to have two days of test n tune this past weekend. We had 40 cars take laps. It was a little bit of normalcy in these times that we are in. We would like to thank all the drivers that sent us pictures of their cars for our virtual car show. We had 45 cars for the show, there are some nice looking cars out there. Thank you to the fans for voting on your favorite cars.

We are anxious to get the season started as everyone else is. We will not be able to race without fans. We count on fans, concession and beer sales to pay expenses and payouts. We also feel it is not fair and right to our sponsors and advertisers, and sponsors on cars, if we do not have fans in the stands. We want everyone involved to feel like they got their money's worth so they will sponsor and advertise with us and the drivers in the future. We are a track for the fans and drivers. With the "Shelter in Place" order extended out to May 18th, our season opener on the 15th has been postponed. We will keep everyone informed weekly on the start of the season. We will make adjustments to the schedule by adding race dates after the season gets started. Please be patient with us!
