FREQUENTLY
ASKED QUESTIONS
When
should I arrive for the races?
It's best to arrive at least 30 minutes ahead of the scheduled green
flag start. There's lots of available seating but there is no
reserved seating. For larger events you may want to consider
arriving a little earlier. Before the show, drivers are often
out on the track for practice giving your a preview of the night's
competition. You also have a chance to check out any displays,
the J&C Souvenir booth and all the tasty treats at the concession
stand. The Flamburgers and Fries are fan favourites!
Where
should I sit?
Anywhere you like! Flamboro Speedway has four sections of tall
grandstands, wrapping from corner four all the way down the front
straightaway and into corner one. There is also a private VIP
chalet available for special events and entertaining located on top
of the corner one hill with a breath taking view of the entire
facility. Contact speedway management for more details on your
night in the VIP chalet.
Is
there camping available?
There is no camping available on-site at Flamboro Speedway, but
there are local camp grounds available just minutes from the
speedway.

What is the speedway's policy on outside food and drink? Can I
bring my cooler?
For the comfort and safety of our
guests, Flamboro Speedway has the following policies:
1. No
Outside Alcohol is permitted anywhere on the Speedway Property
including the parking area and Pits.
2. Only beverages in their original sealed containers (no glass) not
exceeding 1 liter in size will be allowed to be brought into the
speedway.
3. All open containers will be confiscated by track security. Please
leave them in your car.
4. Thermos containers of any kind will no longer be allowed into the
speedway.
5. Only personal size coolers will be permitted.
6. For the safety of all guests, all purses, bags, back packs and
coolers are subject to search by Flamboro Security Staff.
What about pets?
Sorry, absolutely no pets are allowed inside the race track.
The only exception to this rule is for service animals.
Is
there anything else I should bring?
Some things that might make your stay more enjoyable - binoculars,
sunglasses, baseball hat, a blanket or cushion. On sunny
afternoons be sure to bring some sunscreen. Ear plugs are
recommended for small children and those with sensitive hearing.
What is there to eat at the track?
Flamboro Speedway offers a full concession with many different food
and beverage choices, including hot dogs and hamburgers, Flamboro
Speedway's famous French fries, Oktoberfest sausage, chips, popcorn
and more. Flamboro Speedway proudly serves Coca-Cola
beverages.
What if it rains?
In the event of a sudden shower, the program will be temporarily
suspended. However, every effort will be made to complete the full
racing program after the rain stops. Of course, this means that
there will be some time allowed to see if the rain does indeed come
to an end, so it’s a good idea not to leave right away. If, in the
opinion of Flamboro officials, the inclement weather proves too
strong to regain safe racing conditions within a reasonable amount
of time, the remaining races will be postponed or cancelled as
follows:
a) Eight
races or less is considered a rain out. In this case, your ticket
stub will be redeemable for another race event held at Flamboro
Speedway as announced by Speedway management.
b) If
any Feature race is completed (50% of advertised feature laps is
considered a complete race) the race program will be considered
complete with remaining feature events (if any) to be rescheduled as
part of a future show.
Note: If
you leave the track thinking the program might get rained out, your
rain checks are of no value to you if the program ends up being
completed after the delay. Because many fans, participants, sponsors
and staff travel great distances to attend the events (and because
there are a limited number of dates to accommodate the schedule),
every effort will be made to complete the program as advertised.
Is Flamboro Speedway wheelchair
accessible?
Yes, there are accessible parking spaces available at the front
grandstand gate. Washrooms are also accessible on the grandstand
side. Raised seating is available in corner four or corner
one.
Is
there parking on site?
There is plenty of free parking available on the grounds at Flamboro
Speedway.

No - Flamboro Speedway does not currently offer debit or credit card
service.
Can I use my bank card or credit card to

information.
Is there a way to have an announcement
read over the P.A.?
