Greenville Pickens Speedway

A group of supporters is frequently working to save a historical race track in the Upstate. A group gathered along Calhoun Memorial Highway Sunday in an effort to save the Greenville-Pickens Speedway.

The group hopes to preserve the track by having officials declare it a historic landmark. The land adjacent to the track is being developed into an industrial park.


Greenville-Pickens does hold historical significance, as it served as the site of the 1st full length televised NASCAR Race.

Organizers held signs and marched to raise awareness, others drove around the town with signs supporting the preservation of the track.
