Dublin Motor Speedway - Dublin, North Carolina

It’s so frustrating. Honestly wish they would disk it up and repack it come feature time. I couldn’t tell you the last time I have seen a car come from say 8th and win there

Dublin's a sad story...at the end, it had everything except fans and race cars. It's better, it's racier, etc, don't matter if nobody supports it. At the end, nobody did. Sure, there's an assortment of facts and reasons, and things may could have been done differently, but, it's closing can hardly be a surprise.

The "RATTLESNAKE" has finally bit DUMPLIN.

Three tracks in the same general area, two with crappy racing surfaces and one that is top shelf. One closes down and it's the best one. Dublin always ran neck and neck with The Dirt Track at Charlotte in regards to track record qualifying speeds and in only the most recent years has Charlotte edged slightly ahead in times, but not by much. Both tracks were the same size but Charlotte's shape might have been slightly better for achieving high speeds in qualifying with it being a bit more oval. Mike McLaurin did a great job in 2004/2005 when he rebuilt the track. It's a shame for it to sit idle or be closed but the best case scenario, considering all the strings attached, is for it to be operated (not leased) by the family that owns the property.

We tried to work it out but CLR won't be having Supers again this year for that event.

That's too bad. Fans don't want to spend big $ to see limiteds. They want supers.And I agree with what others have said. Of the 4 tracks along I-95 in NC, Dublin was the best & raciest. County Line would be second. Clary's is rough on your stuff. And there is NO passing at Fayetteville. None!

It is a shame. Ultimate puts on a heck of a show at CLR. This past year theyhad good car counts for the limited for the race for the kids but hardly any fans. I would say weather had something to do with it but, I have been there in the last and it was pretty cold and the place was packed.

Clarys has announced that they will be running this year under new management.

Not exactly Dublin, but in the same neighborhood: After being idle for most of 2017, the former "Carolina Speedway" in Lakeview, SC Speedway has been purchased and will begin a renewal process in conjunction with a limited racing schedule in 2018...New official name: Lakeview Motor Speedway.
