Irwindale Speedway plans to close its doors at the end of 2024, track officials announced Oct. 29.
The track, which opened in 1999, has hosted a variety of series since its inception, including the ARCA Menards Series West, which ran two races on the circuit in 2024.
“Irwindale has been more than just a track — it’s been a home and gathering place for racing enthusiasts worldwide,” Tim Huddleston, the track’s owner as well as an owner of High Point Racing in ARCA West, said in a release. “On behalf of my wife Lisa and our partners Bob and Maureen Bruncati, we extend heartfelt thanks to our fans, racers, sponsors, and the city of Irwindale for their unwavering support over the past 25 years. We’re grateful for every moment and memory we’ve shared as a community.”
Sean Hingorani won both Irwindale races in 2024.
According to the release, much of the track’s assets and activity will move to Kevin Harvick’s Kern Raceway for 2025. Kern also currently holds two ARCA West races.
