After bringing motorsports to Los Angeles area fans for decades, Irwindale Speedway announced it will close after the 2024 season.
Since opening in 1999, Irwindale has been home to NASCAR races, demolition derbies, street-legal drag racing, and Formula Drift events.
“Irwindale has been more than just a track—it’s been a home and gathering place for racing enthusiasts worldwide,” said Tim Huddleston, President of Irwindale Speedway & Event Center.
“On behalf of my wife Lisa and our partners Bob and Maureen Bruncati, we extend heartfelt thanks to our fans, racers, sponsors, and the City of Irwindale for their unwavering support over the past 25 years. We’re grateful for every moment and memory we’ve shared as a community.”
The company also announced that Irwindale’s motorsports legacy will continue at a site over 120 miles away. In 2025, its assets and events will transition to Kevin Harvick’s Kern Raceway in Bakersfield.
