🔥 AS SUMMER WINDS DOWN, THINGS ARE HEATING UP AT ASHWAY! 🔥
We’ve got a big September coming up at Ashway Speedway! Check out what’s on the schedule:
🏁 AUGUST 29 — NO RACING
🏁 SEPTEMBER 5 — EAST TENNESSEE CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES RACE #5
We’ll also be coming together to support Joseph Parrott and his family, who lost their home in a fire this past weekend.
We’ll have a 50/50 drawing, with proceeds going to the Parrott family. If you don’t want to participate in the 50/50 but would still like to help, we’ll also be accepting donations at the concession stand.
🏁 SEPTEMBER 12 — TBD
🏁 SEPTEMBER 19 — M2W Promotions: THE GIVEBACK!
They’ve got many FREE classes and very low entry fee classes.
If you’ve been looking for an excuse to come race Ashway, FREE is a pretty hard price to argue with!
🔥 SEPTEMBER 26 — THE SEPTEMBER SIZZLER! 🔥
The official flyer is coming ANY MINUTE! 👀
Summer may be winding down, but Ashway is just getting warmed up. September is going to be a good one! 🏁

🏁 THANK YOU – MINI MONEY RACE 🏁
A huge THANK YOU to everyone who came out and raced with us yesterday at the Mini Money Race!
We honestly don’t think we could have asked for a better group of people. The atmosphere around the track was just awesome. Racers who hadn’t seen each other in a while were hanging out and catching up, kids were having fun, and packs of Junior racers were trailer-hopping all day trying to figure out who had the best drinks and snacks. 😂
It just felt like everyone was happy to be at the racetrack, and that’s exactly the kind of environment we want at Ashway.
And how about those trophy checks?! Those things were HOT! 🔥 Huge thanks to James Gibson at Aqua Spa and Pool for making those happen.
The 365 Clone Burris Tread class looked like an absolute blast, and we didn’t hear a single negative comment about it. Thank you to Shane at Welch Performance for helping make that happen!
Another big thank you to Kris Ammons Insurance Agency for stepping up and guaranteeing the Jr. Sportsman Champ purse.
At the end of the day, it was just a great day at the racetrack. Good racing, good people, kids having fun and everyone enjoying being together. That’s what Ashway is all about.
And we’re not done yet! Stay tuned for the September Sizzler flyer and more awesome races coming your way.
Summer may be winding down, but Ashway is just starting to heat up! 🔥🏁
Thank you again to everyone who spent their Saturday with us. We’ll see y’all at the next one!

Everyone check these out!
James Gibson at Aqua Spa & Pool had these BIG checks made for this weekend’s Mini Money Race at Ashway Speedway, and they turned out awesome! I know the racers holding them at the end of the night are going to appreciate them even more!
As soon as we heard the King of the Ring had been canceled, we wanted to put something together. We knew racers had already put in the time, money, and work getting ready to race this weekend, and we wanted to give everyone somewhere to go race and still have a chance to bring home some money.
What started as something we threw together on Sunday afternoon has quickly turned into a pretty cool race, and that’s because of the people who stepped up to help make it happen.
We couldn’t be more thankful for James and Aqua Spa & Pool, along with everyone else who has jumped on board to make this weekend’s Mini Money Race even better.
See y’all Saturday at Ashway Speedway!
