Pennsboro Speedway cancels season opener due to ‘unexpected damage'
Video shows a 12 News car doing a lap on the original Legendary Pennsboro Speedway in 2021 prior to restoration efforts. PENNSBORO, (WBOY) — After hosting its first major racing event in more than 20 years in 2024, the Pennsboro Speedway's first race of 2025 has been cancelled. The speedway announced on social media Friday that the Outhouse 25, which was scheduled for May 25-26, has been cancelled and 'will not be rescheduled.' The Pennsboro Speedway has been undergoing revitalization for the past few years to bring back the original big track and 'magic' from before the speedway closed in 2002. However, the post said that 'unexpected damage' from over the winter, delayed shipping of essential materials and unfavorable spring weather have forced the 2025 racing season to be pushed back. 'While this news is unfortunate, it comes on the heels of an incredible comeback event in October 2024 that reminded everyone just how special Pennsboro Speedway truly is,' the post said.

The Ritchie County Fair Board, which owns the speedway, is still working tirelessly on the facility's continued revitalization, according to the post. Other races on the Pennsboro Speedway scheduled for 2025 are the Buckwild 50 on Aug. 31 and Sept. 1 and the Mason-Dixon 75 on Oct. 10 and 11. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
