Our Divisions

Old Dominion Speedway Late Models (LM)

Old Dominion is the home of Late Models racing; it all started here. Late Model cars are full size NASCAR Nextel-Cup type cars with horsepower ratings of approximately 400 HP. Old Dominion Speedway Late Models is Old Dominion’s and NASCAR Whelen All-American Series’ Premier Division. Late Models are driven and supported by experienced race drivers and teams. Drivers and teams successful in this Division will often transfer to NASCAR’s Craftsman Truck, Busch or Touring Series. Late Model driver training is also available through Try-It-Racing, phone (703) 368-3232, or go to TryItRacing.com.

Grand Stock Cars (GSC)

Old Dominion’s Grand Stock Division is one of the largest in the Country. Grand Stock cars are very similar to Late Models and the NASCAR Nextel-Cup cars except they utilize engines producing less horsepower and smaller tires. Grand Stock cars still produce over approximately 300 HP. Grand Stock drivers and teams often transfer from the Speedway Sportsman, Mini Stock or INEX Legends classes at Old Dominion.

Many drivers and teams enjoy Grand Stock racing as it is less costly than Late Models while still providing excitement, competition and fast paced action. Grand Stock driver training is also available from Try It Racing; phone (703) 368-3232 or go to “tryitracing.com”.

Mini Modifieds (MM)

Mini Modifieds are compact size race cars utilizing racing and stock production parts, chassis, tire and race engines. The Mini Modifieds class at Old Dominion is very competitive and grows larger every year. Mini Modifieds cars are similar to LMSC and GS but smaller in size including reduced horsepower. In 2004, Old Dominion modified its rules to allow front wheel drive compact car entry including a larger variety of imports. Mini Modifieds cars include entry and seasoned drivers/teams and are less inexpensive to build than Grand Stock cars.

INEX Legends

INEX is a separate sanctioning body similar to NASCAR. INEX Legends look like vintage racecars but utilize a smaller scale and a race type motorcycle engine. Legends cars are very light and quick and are driven by entry and experienced drivers. INEX Legends are a very popular racing platform that is also very reasonable. INEX is an acronym for INEXpensive. Complete cars can be purchased through 600 Racing/Roger Austin at 703-791-0051.  Roger also offers driver-training classes at Old Dominion in INEX Legends.

U-Car

This new class will be running a full season this year at Old Dominion. U-Cars are intended for low budget/fun racing excitement. U-Cars utilize a standard production car, chassis and engine with safety improvements. U-Cars are intended for the casual racer that wants to experience racing action in a fun low-cost race car on a flexible schedule.

ODS Karting Series

ODS Kart Series is a separate sanctioning body similar to INEX. The ODS Kart Series offers a variety of karting classes at Old Dominion. The ODS Kart Series will construct a complete Kart. Karting has become a very popular racing venue for young and old, experienced and inexperienced drivers. The cost to race karts is relatively low, but the race action is thrilling and competitive.
