Lake Geneva Raceway was a 1/3 mile banked asphalt oval located near Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. There was also a very short (1/3 mile) paved road course, probably for karts, which appears to have used parts of the old 1/4 mile oval and the modern 1/3 mile oval. The original track on the site was a 1/4 mile dragstrip. The facility also operated an offroad course for motocross and 4 wheelers.
