History

The track was built in 1946 as a 1/4 mile dirt track, before being converted to a paved race track during the 1960s, through the early 1990s when the track was abandoned.

The speedway was about to be torn down until the Grosso family purchased it in 1997. Until this point the speedway had steadily deteriorated from bad to worse. Originally pavement, the new NES brought dirt track racing back to Ocean County, New Jersey. With a complete track makeover, motorsports promoters from all 50 states named the speedway "Most Outstanding Rehabilitation of a Speedway," putting the central New Jersey track in the national spotlight during Daytona Speedweeks. The Grossos leveled the existing facility and replaced it with a 1/3-mile dirt track.

In 2006, New Egypt Speedway was purchased by Bill Miscoski and Fred Vahlsing. Under Miscoski and Vahlsing’s guidance, in 2009, the Speedway was widened to the current configuration 7/16-mile D-shaped clay oval.

In July 2022, The speedway went under new management.[1]
