During the 2000 racing season, turn 3 was adorned with a new electronic scoreboard and message board, to aid fans in tracking their favorite drivers, during the course of a race.

During the off season, this year, a new pavilion was erected, behind the turn 1 grandstands, to provide a shaded area for sponsored picnics, etc. Every Saturday night a full field of Late Model, Sportsman, International (4 cylinder) and Hobby Stocks, compete for bragging rights, season points and weekly prize money.

The “Bandit,” pure stock, front wheel drive, 4 cylinder class, was introduced, as an entry level racing division, in the 2001 season. These guys have added a valuable element to Jefferson Speedway’s regular saturday night program. This division, for safety reasons, does not use the sweeping turns 3 & 4, but rather use the infield cut-across, at that end of the track.

The Bandits have proved to be a great place to start, for those who feel the “Need for Speed” but don’t want to commit a great deal of time and money to get started. This division has grown, every year, since their start, in 2001.

Jefferson Speedway runs a number of special events each year. The 2003 schedule contains three “Tournaments of Destruction.” These events provide thrills and laughs, for children of all ages, with events ranging from Auto Bowling, to 4 cylinders racing on soap suds, and ending with a Demolition Derby. These bouts of automotive mayhem are staged on non-race nights. Check our schedule for dates and times.

The Tucker family, who have operated the track since 1968, dedicate a great deal of time and energy to managing the rules, in each of the tracks’ divisions. The goal is to maintaining a fair and affordable racing venue, for both race teams, and fans. Every year, during the off season, the drivers and crews have the opportunity to participate in the rules process. Changes are made, progress in technology is inevitable, but the goal is to keep the costs down and participation up.

In addition to the racing program, Jefferson Speedway, hosts the Jefferson Bargain Fair, every Sunday during the racing season. Over 100 vendors come out weekly, to peddle their wares.

Attention to detail, fairness and hard work has proved to be a winning combination at Wisconsin’s Action Track.
