I have always enjoyed Merritt Speedway since the first time there as a spectator to working on the Don Biddle Late Model team out of Prudenville and now as a spectator again. I live in Flushing Michigan and endure the trip up and back just to enjoy the racing and great people at the track. I hope I can continue to enjoy this experience with my family and friends for several more years.

Merritt Speedway is still going strong as one of the best dirt tracks in the state. This upcoming summer (2017) is going to be a huge racing season at Merritt. They have booked a big group of shows, including a couple of Sprint Car shows.

A 36-year tradition in northern Michigan, Merritt Speedway is the state’s finest clay-oval motor sports facility. The 2003 racing season is over, but you can still read the recap of this summers racing every week here!

The 1/4 mile banked clay oval is located on M-55, between Houghton Lake and Lake City. Every Saturday night, over 140 drivers arrive at Merritt Speedway looking for a checkered flag victory. Merritt Speedway provides racing action in four classes including Late Models, Michigan Modifieds, Pro Trucks, and Street Stocks.
