Grand Opening Spectacle

15 Minutes of
Fire & Fury

We didn't book a fireworks show. We booked a spectacle. After the checkered flag drops, the sky over Mansfield Speedway turns into a 15-minute pyrotechnic explosion you'll talk about all summer.

The Story

This Is
Grand Opening Race.

Think of it like Opening Day at the ballpark, only louder. The energy. The anticipation. The whole community showing up because something they love is back.

Mansfield Speedway is back under new ownership — Matt Tifft, former NASCAR Cup driver, Forbes 30 Under 30 — at the helm. New dirt laid down. Wider racing surface. A giant screen. Premium sound. And the loudest, most action-packed racing you can find on a Friday night in Ohio.

This is a spectacle. Sprint Cars and Late Models and Modifieds — all three, one night, one ticket. Plus a 15-minute Flashpoint fireworks & pyro show to cap it off. Tickets from just $20. That does not happen everywhere. It happens here, on May 15.
