Langley Speedway
Oval TrackVirginia, United States
Langley Speedway (known as Larry King Law's Langley Speedway for commercial reasons) is a race track located in Hampton, Virginia, United States. Langley Speedway is a paved short track measuring 0.400 mi (0.644 km) in length. It is one of the flattest tracks in the region with only six degrees of banking in the corners and two degrees of banking on the straights. In November 1970, it became the site of the last NASCAR Grand National Series race before the series was renamed the Winston Cup. The track is located in front of NASA's Langley Research Center on Commander Shepard Boulevard. The track is NASCAR sanctioned and participates in the NASCAR Advance Auto Parts Weekly Series, which determines a national champion for the NASCAR sanctioned local tracks. The track hosts 12 divisions that alternate running during their Saturday night program: Late models, Limited Late Models, Modifieds, legends cars, Super Streets, Enduros, Grand Stocks, Super Trucks, UCARS, Pro Six (a Nissan VG30E engine-based class, the engine was used in some Ford products in the 1990s and 2000s), and HRKC Pro Winged Champ Karts. Naming rights sponsorship belongs to an attorney in the region. Pre race ceremonies for the regular Saturday night events begin at approximately 7:00 PM with the first race of the night beginning about 15 minutes later. Langley also hosts Hampton Roads Kart Club races on most Sundays and some Fridays during the season, Wacky Wednesday which allows anyone with a helmet and a street legal car to participate in the time attack, burnout competition, and one on one drag races on most Wednesday nights during the season, the Langley Drift Club which helped bring drifting to the Hampton Roads' area, and starting in 2023 Old-Dominion Region-SCCA Autocross events.
