Florence Speedway Fan Appreciation Night this Saturday August 25th!

(Union, KY – August 22, 2018)   This Saturday, August 25th, is one of our most popular nights of the year as we host Fan Appreciation Night at Florence Speedway! On this night we give some back to the fans who make this all possible. We offer a complete racing program for only $10 and as the highlight of the evening, at intermission, we bring the cars and drivers to the infield then let the fans come down as well. They can meet their favorite drivers, get autographs, and see the cars up close. The drivers get in on the action as well with many having autograph cards made specially for the event and also have other things to give away. Because of the extra activities, we do start 30 minutes earlier than normal with hot laps starting at 5:30 and racing at 6:30. It really is an event you don’t want to miss! On the racing side of things, we will have complete programs for our Late Model, Slicker Graphics Modified, Phoenix Comfort Systems Crate, G&G Express Sport Mod, and Hornet divisions!

Sunoco Race Fuels Heat Race Challenge

We at Florence Speedway are excited to announce that the Sunoco Race Fuels Heat Race challenge is returning for the 2018 season. We and Sunoco Race Fuels have teamed up for a program to reward drivers who race here weekly. The Sunoco Race Fuels Heat Race Challenge will reward drivers who run well in their heat races and run Sunoco Race Fuel products. The twist to this program is that where, in most cases, drivers in different divisions can not compete against each other, in the Sunoco Race Fuels Heat Race Challenge, the eligible drivers will be competing head to head! That's right, the Late Models, Slicker Graphics Modifieds, Phoenix Comfort Systems Crates and G&G Express Sport Mods are all competing for the same prize. At the end of the season, the top point earner will gain a $500 prize from Sunoco, and everyone in the top 10 will receive cash awards. For more details check out the program info page on our website.At the track, we currently offer Sunoco HCR+ 114 Octane, Supreme 112 Octane, 260 GT Plus 104 Octane Unleaded Crate Fuel for sale by the gallon. We also have access to drums of each of the above and all of Sunoco's fuels. If anyone is interested in purchasing a drum, just ask at our fuel sales area. Purchase of any of the above qualifies you for the Sunoco Heat Race challenge bonuses. The Sunoco Heat Race challenge begins on March 31st.

New Policies in place for 2018

Florence Speedway management wants to take this opportunity to inform our customers of some new policies that will be in place this season. During discussions with lawyers from the Kentucky Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control, we have been informed of the following state law:

KRS 243.020(4) provides, “[a] licensee shall not permit any consumer to possess, give away, or drink alcoholic beverages on the licensed premises that are not purchased from the licensee.”

To simplify, this means that customers can not bring any alcohol(beer, wine, or liquor) into the stands, pit areas, or concession areas of the speedway. As this is a state law, this is non-negotiable and there are no exceptions. To comply with this our gate policy at most events will be changed to be:

No carry in or out of alcohol. One cooler 14" X 14" X 14" max allowed. Coolers, bags, and other items may be searched at any time. Food and non-alcoholic drink are permitted. No glass bottles allowed.

We are looking into our options to expand what beers and other alcohols we have available for sale at the track. If you would like to see something specific carried, let us know at the track or send us a message. We are willing to carry anything that there is enough interest in. We apologize for any inconvenience this causes, but we really do not have a lot of choice in this matter.

2018 Sponsorship Opportunities Available

We are currently looking for companies who are interested in advertising with us for the 2018 season. We can do packages that incorporate signage, billboards, website advertising, mailer advertising, company outings at the track, company titled race nights, division sponsorships, T-shirt and other giveaways, or we can customize sponsorship ideas to fit your needs. We can work with sponsors with most any budget from companies who only want to spend as little as $200 up to corporations with advertising budgets in the thousands.
