Est. 1966 · Dillon County, South Carolina

A racetrack that refused to stay closed

Two miles off the interstate, a fourth-of-a-mile down Old Race Track Road, there is a banked asphalt oval that has been part of Dillon County since the sixties.

The original 4/10 mile dirt oval opened around 1966 as Dillon County Raceway and operated through 1973. It reopened from 1977 to 1980, then sat quiet.

By 2006 the track was badly overgrown. Ron Barfield bought it, paved it, and gave it new life. The 2007 season was the first for the new Dillon Motor Speedway — and the track has been growing and improving ever since.

2026 marks the speedway's 20th consecutive season of racing, with a full slate of points races, memorial events and the season-ending INEX Legend Car Asphalt Nationals.
