    Miss it so much after moving away. Best thing to do on a Summer Night near the beach! Speedway racing at Costa Mesa is the best racing!

    This video posted by the CITY OF COSTA MESA! Thank you so much for posting this! I've been a Speedway fan for a very long time, and even sponsored Speedway here on the East Coast in the late 90's at Champion Speedway in Owego, NY. It's a good feeling to know that a municipality recognizes this sport as something so important to so many. Great job COSTA MESA!

    Costa Mesa is where I grew up. I was 15 years old in 1980. Surfed all the time. I met Bruce Penhall in my mother's dermatologists clinic. I seen Bruce race in Costa Mesa and countless times during surfing

    Fantastic history so many great American riders grew up on that track and became speedway stars. I saw Bobby Schwartz race in New Zealand at a track called Ruapuna in I think 1983. It is a big track 400Mtrs and he rode the concrete wall all the way around and I mean right on the wall I have never seen anything so spectacular before or since. He is a racers racer that is why he still rides.
