Clayhill Motorsports Park’s Ribbon Cutting is Friday

Posted

Carroll County Chamber of Commerce is hosting a ribbon-cutting ceremony for Clayhill Motorsports Park on Friday, August 25, 10 a.m. to celebrate the newly upgraded dirt racetrack and the new owners.

The track is located at 1315 Rimmer Road, Atwood, Tenn.

Elite Automotive, Inc., based in Bakersfield, California, acquired the track on June 2.

August 5 was Clayhill Motorsports Park’s first official race night. The next races are August 25-26. The August 25 race is a “No Fender Friday” promotion, where none of the race cars will have fenders on them. Races include USCS sprint cars, mini sprints, open-wheel modified dirt cars, and Mod Lite dirt cars. August 26 includes more local classes with sprint car, 602 Late Model, street stock, factory stock, and Hummer class races.

Clayhill Motorsports Park will host races two weekends in September and two weekends in October. The track’s 2024 season will be a full racing program, hosting races about three weekends per month, April through October. The owners also plan special promotion nights throughout next year’s season.
