Santa Maria Speedway
Bigger. Louder. Faster. Santa Maria Speedway Unleashes 2026!
After a successful 2025 season, the newly renovated Santa Maria Speedway is gearing up to come back even stronger in 2026!
A total of 29 events are set to hit the grounds next year, kicking off in March with Malicious Monster Trucks and wrapping up in November with Monster Trucks once again.
In between, fans can expect plenty of action on the third-mile track—honoring legends from our past like Doug Fort and Danny Simkins, while also welcoming exciting new faces such as the High Rollers with High Limit Racing on August 20th.
And for our local racers? We’re paying CASH at the end of the race night.
