History
Originally known as the Stafford Springs Agricultural Park, the facility was used as a half-mile horse racing facility up to the end of World War II when it switched to automobile racing. The facility became a sanctioned track in 1959 as a dirt track, under the ownership of Rockville auto dealer Mal Barlow. Barlow was bought out in 1967, and the track was later paved.
