Information on Heartland Motorsports Park Drag Strip

Type of race track: NHRA sanctioned 1/4 mile drag strip on 650 plus acres of land.

Location: Located SW side of Topeka, Kansas on Topeka Blvd

History: Construction on Heartland Motorsports Park took more than a year and on August 11, 1989, four years after a motorsports facility was proposed in Topeka, the track hosted its first race, the Camel Grand Prix. Built at a cost of nearly $22 million, Heartland Motorsports Park has been hosting record setting performances since the doors first opened over 30 years ago. Since 2016, the updates and renovations that have been done to the facility have been tremendous. Consequently, Heartland Motorsport’s Park 2019 season is expected to be one of the busiest to date. With over 56 days filled with road racing, 13 Test & Tune’s on the drag strip, four Sprint Car events on the dirt oval, and four nationally recognized events, Heartland invites you to come out to one or many of their 156 days of fast, fun-filled events!

Drag race season: April to mid-November, select Friday nights, most Saturdays, and some Sundays.
