Middle Georgia Raceway in Byron, Georgia hosted a reunion on March 11-12 2011.There was a car show and retired NASCAR drivers celebrating the event.This Historic track hosted local and regional racing at the facility including NASCAR Grand National (Sprint Cup) races from 1966-1971 with legendary winners such as Bobby Allison, Richard Petty, Bobby Isaac, and David Pearson. But, in November 1967 Federal Authorities found a moonshine still operating under the race track. Entry to the still was through a trap door in the floor of a ticket office to a 125 foot tunnel under the race track. Sadly, the track was last raced on in 1984.

  • i wish they would redo this track, i live in the neighborhood next to it and i go over there all the time

  • My family used to go to Middle Georgia Raceway every Sunday to watch races back in the 70's. Also remember the Grand National races there. It's fantastic you all are doing these shows to keep the old racetrack alive.
