The horse track at the fairgrounds was used from 1922 through 1931, and in 1940. Post WWII the track reopened around August of 1958. The track did not run in 1968 as the front straight wall needed to be replaced. In 1970, the flat turns were built up into mild banking and the name Adams County Speedway was adapted.
