The Oswego Speedway, located in Oswego, NY, was built in 1951 when original owners Harry, George and William Caruso converted the one-time Wine Creek Horse Track into a 3/8-mile dirt auto racing facility. The track was paved during 1952 and remained a 3/8-mile track until 1961 when it was enlarged to its current 5/8-mile size.
The Oswego Speedway has been a continuously run weekly race track since it opened in August of 1951. The Speedway is now in the hands of the Torrese family, who have a long history as both owners and drivers at the speedway.
Oswego Speedway is mentioned in racing circles as the “Indy of the East,” as no fewer than a dozen past and present competitors have competed at the famed Indianapolis Motor Speedway, including two-time Indy 500 Champion Gordon Johncock and 1969 Champ Mario Andretti. Former Budweiser International Classic champions Bentley Warren, Joe Gosek, and Davey Hamilton have all competed at Indy in the 500. The biggest asphalt weekend of racing during the year at Oswego Speedway is Budweiser International Classic Weekend, held annually on Labor Day Weekend.
