The 2007 season will mark the 24th consecutive season the N.E.W. dirt has operated the racing program in Seymour. The facility is located on the Outagamie County Fairgrounds in Seymour, WI and presents a five division racing program on Sunday evenings.

N.E.W. Dirt was formed prior to the start of the 1984 racing season and is the organization responsible for re-opening the facility. Seymour Speedway operated from 1966 to 1977 as a half-mile clay oval. The raceway was then closed until the start of the 1982 season when N.E.W. Dirt took over operation of the track in 1984 and began to create a successful racing program.

At the end of the 1987 season the club and the fair board started a reconstruction process. Due to the location of some major electrical lines it was decided to reshape the racetrack and when the 1988 season began the new tri-oval was in place. The third-mile track has unique shape that provides some very close racing. The Tri-Oval configuration would be in place until the end of the 2004 season when another major overhaul began.

The 2005 Season brought not only a new configuration to the track but a new name as well. The Seymour Tri-Oval changed its name to Seymour Speedway after the Tri-Oval was removed in favor of an oval track. This change along with the addition of new lights both helped to improve the program. The second season on the new 1/3 mile oval provided the backdrop for the 2006 race season. The improved track conditions as the new clay settled in made for an exciting race season with record car counts.

Since the 1988 season crowds and car counts have continued to climb and the club has become one of the more successful organizations in the state of Wisconsin. Pete Parker the two-time WISSOTA National Late Model champion competes weekly at the racetrack and has won 6 titles at the raceway over the years. The speedway is also known for it’s extremely competitive Street Stock class and high car counts in the IMCA Modified and IMCA Stock Car divisions.
