As we begin our 100th season, we honor the past that built us and the future still to come. What started as a humble track in Oldsmar has grown into a century of tradition built on speed, passion, and unforgettable moments.
This season, we are celebrating everything that brought us here. The fans. The horses. The stories. And the future we are racing toward.
