Lavonia, Georgia – The announcement was made on October 22nd 2012. Buzz was about Lavoina Speedway back in business after almost 3 years in slumber. The response from everyone around it or even far away has been remarkable. Everyone now has been in countdown mode, but the wait is coming to an end. Lavoina Speedway & Entertainment Complex is back and better than ever before. OH yeah did I forget to mention, LATE MODEL MANIA is this weekend!!
Max King and Stan Lester along with Track Manager/Race Director Brad York have joined forces and will breathe life back into the once prominent racing facility beginning this weekend. “Late Model Mania is truly a fragment of the dirt track Americana” said Max King the Co-Owner of the Lavoina Speedway with FASTRAK Founder/CEO Stan Lester. “Max and I want to put Lavonia Speedway back on the map again. I drive by that place twice a day and I can’t help but think what a waste it is for it to be sitting there closed but not anymore. Max and I finally got together and the rest, as they say, is history.” exclaimed Stan Lester.
